That had really hit the skids over the last several months. donald trump was not happy with his communications department. he brought in bill shine to plug the leaks and improve his message and his image. clearly none of that had happened. now, in shines defense, you got to look in, you know -- look in the mirror and the proverbial twitter feed, its trump who is doing a lot of the damage but he blamed shine for those problems. he even would tell privately to friends the nickname he gave him was ...

The big moments. he didnt go to vietnam. he wasnt there at key moments during the government shutdown. people saw that as a sign that he might be on his way out. his departure did surprise people. he had some admirers on the white house staff. they thought he was the adult in the room but the one person who matters the most in this white house, of course, is the president of the united states. >> yeah. and a lot of people are learning, at least some five communications directors so far. dana, ar...

As i reported today in "vanity fair," this was a relationship that had really hit the skids over the last several months. donald trump was not happy with his communications department. he brought in bill shine to plug the leaks and improve his message and his image. clearly none of that had happened. now, in shines defense, you got to look in, you know -- look in the mirror and the proverbial twitter feed, its trump who is doing a lot of the damage but he blamed shine for those problems. he even...

And that is probably the difference. nor do tve hathis wild kind of association of one network with one president at the time that shine resigned was the time this "new yorker" piece was really being talked about. >> right. i dont think its a coincidence that the "new yorker" came out this week and showed that what weve all known for a long time that fox news is a propaganda outlet. it is night and day relentless pro-trump, that the president gets his talking points from fox news in the morning ...

The president frequently criticized him to other advisors saying his own press coverage had not improved. and jane mare describing the close ties between the trump white house and fox news. reminded readers that the former executive was repaunsable for cleaning up extensive abuse and several lawsuits name him as a complicit in pay offs and victim intimidation. and sean hannity became a match maker, arranging a dinner for the president at the white house and proposed shine as a top communicatio c...

Was unempreimpressed and never a shine to the communications director. as time wore on, it became clearer mr. sunshihine did not develop a close relationship with mr. trump. annie karni reports, shine never set up his voice mail for what it is worth. no successor has been announced. his legacy may be the end of the white houses daily press briefings. lets talk with our guests, j n jonathan allen and phillip eliot for "time" magazine. eliot, well start with you, was this departure with bill shine...

Done. ive been a communications director on two different campaigns now and -- presidential campaigns and to have that level of intimacy where you need to have the same views and im sure that shine pushed back over and over and said we cant message it this way and trump just said, this is who i am, this is who i want to be because it works with his base. this is what he sees as his secret sauce taking his direct message out to the public time and time again whether theyre his base or not. nobody...

Seems to indicate the president was unimpressed and never took a shine to the communications director. as time wore on, it became clearer mr. shine did not develop a close relationship with mr. trump. annie karni reports, shine never set up his voice mail for what it is worth. no successor has been announced. his legacy may be the end of the white houses daily press briefings. lets talk with our guests, jonathan allen and phillip eliot for "time" magazine. eliot, well start with you, was this de...

Fox news executive, and given the presidents proclivity for fox news, i think he had designs on shine, who was a long-time friend of sean hannity, one of his closest friends. i think he thought he would see the news look generally more like fox news and i think he was disappointed when that wasnt the case. i dont think the two totally clicked or hit it off. but thats not particular to shine. hes the fifth person to hold this title of white house communications director, and you begin to see a pa...

The white house but i think, you know, that really bill shine is somebody who may have thought he would have a larger role than the role he ended up having which was effectively stage managing the president, that the president is his own communications director and there have been reports at cnn and elsewhere that the president wasnt thrilled with the performance of shine because he thought he would ghet him better press than hes gotten and so i think you put all those things together and i thin...
