More from the Washington Examiner:
Bill Shine, who has worked at Fox News for 20 years, has resigned as co-president. … [Murdoch’s memo] announced that Suzanne Scott would become president of programming and Jay Wallace would become president of news.The shakeup comes in light of an apparent overhaul at Fox following sexual harassment claims against now-former CEO Roger Ailes and anchor Bill O’Reilly.
But are there still more shake-ups to come? According to New York Magazine’s national affairs editor Gabriel Sherman, Shine’s exit could possible prompt a departure from another major FNC staple:
According to 3 Fox sources, Hannity has a "key man clause" in his contract that would allow him to quit anytime. He's v. loyal to Shine.— Gabriel Sherman (@gabrielsherman) May 1, 2017
A new report from the Daily Beast suggests that Hannity could indeed leave the network:
