Right....and who got a LOT of airtime on Fox that summer?

Mr. O'Neill....

Shep showed his biases, but he didn't keep the swift boat guys off of the TV. That is what George was talking about and what you pointed too just proved what George was saying, that Shep has his biases and doesn't try to hide them.

Not on Shep's show. He flatly called them liars, with no chance for them to confront him and defend themselves. The issue is Shepard Smith, not the rest of Fox News. What the rest of the Fox shows did is irrelevant as far as the question of Shep's character and ethics is concerned.

Again, I "proved" nothing of the sort. Yes, George was "talking about" Shep's biases, but his contention was that DESPITE those flaws Shep was still one of the good guys because he was still "fair and balanced". I simply pointed out a glaring instance of Shep's unprofessional lack of fairness and balance, which contradicts George's contention.

If you like Shep, that's just fine. As for me, I have no respect or use for him, for the reasons I gave.
