One source tells Sherman that several women at Fox in recent days started circulating a petition that called for Shine to be fired. Foxs on-air talent is apparently stunned by the news, and one Fox host tells Sherman that they have no idea whats going on.

Earlier this year, longtime Fox News contributor Julie Roginsky filed a lawsuit against the network that claimed Shine aided and abetted sexual harassment committed by former Fox News boss Roger Ailes. Shines departure now marks the third major firing of longtime Fox personnel in the wake of the networks multiple sexual harassment scandals, along with Roger Ailes and longtime star host Bill OReilly.

6. This is a great line from the article

Fox’s on-air talent is apparently stunned by the news, and one Fox host tells Sherman that they have “no idea what’s going on.”

Really? They don't know what is going on at their network? Actually, I'm not surprised. That crew of deplorable idiots can't figure out what day it is.

The dismantling of the old guard at Fox won't change the tone or stupidity of that mendacious company.

8. Sean Hannity Eyes Fox News Exit, Insiders Say

Sean Hannity is looking to leave Fox News, according to sources, following the resignation of Fox News co-president Bill Shine officially on Monday.

Shine was Hannity’s his long-time ally whom he personally recommended the network hire two decades ago to produce Hannity & Colmes. In recent days, Hannity warned it would be the “total end” of Fox News should Shine leave, and he rallied conservative activists to back him up.

Initially, insiders said, Hannity’s army of lawyers had hoped to discuss with Fox ways of protecting his 8-year-old primetime show, amid fears that Lachlan and James Murdoch—fresh off the ousting of Bill O’Reilly—were looking to push the network away from hard-right politics.

However, with Shine’s departure on Monday, one source told The Daily Beast, there’s no reason for Hannity to stay.
