Didn’t Shep Smith attend the University of Mississippi during the period when they proudly flew the Confederate flag, sang Dixie at the top of their lungs, and had a mascot that was a Confederate Colonel?

You’re ignorant so I’m going to help you

Colonel Reb was not a confederate

He was supposed to be an old rich southerner folks called colonel out of respect like Don in Latin culture

The origin of colonel Reb was a black man who was a fan late 1800s early 1900s and dressed as such with white hair etc and was a defector mascot of the team

Shep would have been there when Chancellor Porter Fortune forbid the confederate battle flag at sporting events...1983

When you act like our cultural enemies it’s not helpful

Something that during the Civil War Centennial no one except the America haters on the Marxist Left used to claim was a crime. Of course that was before the likes of Haley and D’Souza showed up and decided that there is opportunity in virtue signalling.

President Eisenhower even displayed portraits of Robert E Lee and Stonewall Jackson in his office. I guess he gets to be a racist too for the current crop PC ‘conservatives’.
