And let&#8217;s not forget that Trump himself is a former Fox News shill. That\u2019s right.

Shine took over as president of Fox News after CEO and founder Roger Ailes was fired for multiple allegations of sexual harassment and abuse. But shortly thereafter, Shine was also jettisoned for coddling and protecting Ailes and other Fox deviants.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE:<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/bill-shine-fox-news-exec-accepts-white-house\/story?id=56204272\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">It&#8217;s official<\/a><\/strong>. Former Fox News Executive Bill Shine Accepts White House Communications Role.<\/p>\n<p>Shine may be the perfect communications director for Trump. They share much in common. In addition to their shared histories with Fox News, they both have long records of disrespecting women. Trump presently is facing allegations by at least <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=36191\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sixteen women<\/a><\/strong> who say he harassed and\/or assaulted them. Shine has not been accused of mistreatment himself, but he is widely viewed as having knowingly covered up sexual misbehavior and crimes. He&#8217;s been <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/maddieberg\/2017\/05\/01\/bill-shine-out-as-co-president-of-fox-news\/#5949a51a28ac\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">named in several lawsuits<\/a><\/strong> filed against Ailes and Bill O&#8217;Reilly. For instance, former Fox News host Andrea Tantaros charged that Shine used private information to <em>&#8220;to intimidate, terrorize and crush her career.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Shine is also a close associate of Trump&#8217;s favorite Fox News defender and fluffer, Sean Hannity. And Hannity is reported to have actively <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JordanUhl\/status\/1012012069284085760\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">pushed Trump<\/a><\/strong> to hire Shine. Prior to joining the executive ranks at Fox, Shine was Hannity&#8217;s producer. When Shine was first rumored to be on the chopping block Hannity freaked out. In response to the news he tweeted this:<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/seanhannity\/status\/857693772884430849<\/p>\n<p>Well, it was true, but FNC persists with an even more extremist agenda of facilitating Trump&#8217;s tyrannical aspirations and status as a racist cult leader. It is recognized by most observers that Fox News has transformed itself into a State TV enterprise serving only to advance White House propaganda. The bonds that link Fox to Trump just keep getting tied tighter with every day. Even Don Jr. has left his wife and five kids to date Fox&#8217;s Kimberly Guilfoyle.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><strong>How Fox News Deceives and Controls Their Flock:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00QSSMOES\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B00QSSMOES&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=newscorpsecom-20&#038;linkId=TLI6JC2OYE22MUTS\" target=\"_blank\">Fox Nation vs. Reality: The Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><br \/>\nAvailable now at Amazon.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In reality there is no practical difference between Fox News and Trump&#8217;s presidency. And with the possible addition of the Fox ex-president as the chief White House communications official, it is impossible to deny this unprecedented and unethical relationship between a president and the media. It is a parasitic perversion wherein Fox News slobbers over Trump with adoring tongue baths and targeted attacks on his critics. Meanwhile, Trump frequently tweets almost daily about what he&#8217;s watching on Fox News and even promotes their programming. At the same time he lashes out at all other media as <em>&#8220;fake&#8221;<\/em> news. One really has to wonder how Fox News can legitimately cover Trump considering their close personal and professional ties. But then <em>&#8220;legitimate&#8221;<\/em> would be the operative word, and one that is rarely associated with Fox News.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The administration of Donald Trump is currently teeming with Fox News alumni serving in official roles and as outside advisors.
