Shepard Smith has come out as a gay man in a new interview.

The popular Fox News anchor, who has been with the network since it first launched 20 years ago, spoke about his sexuality in an interview with Huffington Post.

Smith, 52, confirmed the long-circulating rumor when he was asked if it was former Fox News CEO Roger Ailes who prevented him from coming out of the closet.

Next question: “Pitcher” or “catcher”?

I stopped watching Smith in the early 2000's. He did an interview for an article, and he came off like a putz. His on-air makeup didn't help.

I actively avoided him after his atrocious Hurricane Katrina coverage.

I eventually stopped watching cable news in general. Having Smith out of eyes, ears, and mind is merely a grain of sugar at best

This is almost as shocking as finding out Liberace and Anderson Cooper were poofers. Who’s next? Richard Simmons? Lyndsey Graham?

Shep seems like a decent person, and that is fine with me. Of course I think homosexuality is a sin, but I think we should judge Shep on his on his fairness as a journalist and be done with it.

Using your standard, shep is a compromised, dishonest loser “journalist”. What a putz.

Good, now Fox News should dump him so he can crawl on over to CNN and become Anderson Vanderbilt’s blow up doll.

Dear Shep (you reading this?),
Believe it or not no one cares that you’re gay. The fact that you’re a whiny baby liberal is what annoys us.
Sincerely,
Me and Lots of Others Who Don’t Watch Your Show Or Your Network, Anyway

Maybe switch-hitter.

I’m devastated. Barry Manilow, and now Shep? If the next ones they tell me are Lindsey Graham or Tom Cruise, I might drop my Zima. WHEN WILL THIS MADNESS END?

This reminds me of Austin Powers after being frozen and reads about Liberace: “Yeah, and I can’t believe Liberace was gay. I mean, women loved him! I didn’t see that one coming.”
