Next question: “Pitcher” or “catcher”?

I’m Shocked! SHOCKED, I Tell You!

LOL. Not Really.

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

[ataDude]

Gosh. I am very surprised. /s

[pissant]

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

[Sam Gamgee]

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.

[hal ogen]

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

[BigSkyFreeper]

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

Even Stevie Wonder saw this one coming.....

I’m glad I was sitting down when I read this shocker.

I heard Sean Hannity was heterosexual as well

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?

Don’t forget the mascara...

[gogeo]

Maybe, but they’re generally very nice thighs...

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.”
