But the loudest voices opposing Shines appointment are not coming from progressive activists and womens groups. Theyre coming from within the conservative media world.
Those forces mobilized to try and block Shines ascent, warning the White House that it may have a staffing scandal of Rob Porter proportions on its hands once Roger Ailes former right-hand man joins the administration.
