Bill Shine Subpoenaed Last Year in Criminal Investigation of Fox News Harassment Case (Report)
White House communications chief Bill Shine’s troubled tenure running Fox News continues to surface.
On Friday, The New York Times reported that the former co-president of the news network was subpoenaed in 2017 as part of a criminal investigation into the company’s handling of multiple accusations of sexual harassment by top executives like former CEO Roger Ailes and on-air talent.
Though Shine was never personally accused of misconduct, he has been named in multiple civil suits against the channel with claims that he did not properly address complaints.
Reps for the White House did not immediately respond to request for comment from TheWrap.
