Speaking of Fudge Napolitano, he is running out of allies. I bet he is shopping his services so he can rip on Fox. Maybe Don Lemon can make him a “regular” on his failed show.

I would like to thank his former “primetime colleagues” for forcing out that Liberal Snowflake POS.

Did they make “smoothchie” faces at him, or make comments about mascara?

I suspect Wallace will be Shemp’s replacement.

If I was getting paid $15 million a year, I’d let them milkshake me.

Shep ran into real opposition and just couldn’t face it.

Would you say, we now have a ghost of Shep? 😁🤣🤗👍😆

hopefully, Judge Nap will quit or be fired when none of the other fox hosts want him on their shows ... i dislike Judge Nap even worse than Juan Williams: Williams is just a plain ordinary fool, while Judge Nap is a deliberate liar ...

I'm long-odds betting on Jesse Waters as replacement for Shemp Swish.

Jesse is extremely popular, has matured, does his homework and is prepared on all subjects.....he strongly stands up to jerks like Wan Williams....and he's young enough to quickly pack and fly country-wide to do the field trips and stand mike in hand in the midst of hurricane winds and roiling flood waters like Shemp did.

The woman-audience that watches afternoon TV will like the good-lookin' Waters and would love to be in his "world".

I wish Mike Wallace would just go away.

If his positions on the issues were justified then he wouldn’t feel bad, he just would win because he was accurate and truthful. Instead he pushed fake news and tried to spin current events politically.

Methinks Shep would like to be a "regular" for Don Lemon.

You'd think "journalists" would be able to come up with a better cover story! Sounds like "Johnny keeps making faces at me!" Ridiculous. I guess they wanted to cover for him because POTUS was trolling pretty Shepard Smith pretty hard .

 

Excerpt:

Q Mr. President, did you or your administration pressure Fox News to get rid of Shepard Smith?

THE PRESIDENT: No, I don’t know. Is he leaving?

Q He’s leaving.

THE PRESIDENT: Oh, that’s a shame.

Q Then why did Bill Barr meet with Rupert Murdock the other night?

THE PRESIDENT: That I don’t know. Wait — did I hear Shepard Smith is leaving?

Q Yes.

THE PRESIDENT: Is he leaving because of bad ratings?

Q You’d have to ask him.

THE PRESIDENT: Tell me. I don’t know. He has terrible ratings. Is he leaving because of his ratings?

Q You have to ask him.

THE PRESIDENT: I mean, if he’s leaving, I assume he is leaving because he had bad ratings.

Q But you didn’t put any pressure on anybody?

THE PRESIDENT: He had the worst ratings on Fox, so there’s a reason — why is Shepard Smith leaving?

Q You’d have to ask him, Mr. President.

THE PRESIDENT: Well, I wish him well.

Q The Attornery General — the Attorney General meeting with Rupert —

THE PRESIDENT: I wish — I wish Shepard Smith well.

Totally different positions; Smith’s job was fundamentally news reporting, and should have been fundamentally free of bias; Waters is there for his acerbic commentary and in-depth reporting on his own point of view. I’d rather see Waters do what he does, and someone more like Brit Hume (most of the time) in the newsier slot.
