Fox News staffers worry Shepard Smith's departure will further push out facts
CNN ^ | Oct. 12, 2019 | Brian Stelter

As soon as Shep Smith signed off Fox News on Friday, he rode down a freight elevator to the underground garage where a car and driver were waiting. His departure was emotional enough as is -- he didn't want a tearful goodbye in his studio or the newsroom.

He knew his colleagues would have questions and concerns. The big question: What will Fox's news operation look like without him?

Truth are facts and facts are truth.

The problem is that they make up lies and insist those are truth and facts.

Article’s full of self-serving lies. The “journalism” side of FNC was and is pure communist propaganda, Shepturd being the worst. Let’s hope he was flushed into the strongest part of a toxic disposal septic system, never to emerge.

Boo boo. Shep was the weakest link. Poorly rated show. Good riddens. I refused to watch him.


I have not watched Shep Smith since he blamed Bush for Hurricane Katrina. I just turned off the TV, or changed channel.
