Hired as a boyish-looking, pretty-boy commentator to appeal to the evening Oprah crowd, he's starting to pall over the long haul because there's not too much depth behind the facade.

In the case of Fox News, however, it's not so funny. The network has lost its way.
AMEN.
"Shemp (as Levin calls him) always reminds me of a perpetual frat boy."
Most frat boys don't wear womens underwear.
I watch bits of Fox & Friends during the week, then try to watch Brit Hume, but other than that, I turn to FR to get my news. I used to have my TV turned to Fox News constantly, but got tired of the monotony of Shep, O'Reilly, Hannity & Colmes and Greta.
Muskrat love, obviously..
The New York Times recently wrote that Kerry had asked that all his military records be released, but he's played games on the SF-180 (he signed it, but did he send it, and if so to whom) that it's hard to know what he's doing in that regard.
Sit Shep, sit! Good dog.
Or any book for that matter.
"Shepard Smith Smears Swift Boat Vets "
no surprise coming from egotistical punk
maybe he will switch his employment to CNN during this years hurricane season
A lap dog, no doubt.
Fox and Friends was once a decent morning news show. However, their primary focus would now appear to be the promotion of "reality" shows promoted by Rupert Murdock.
During the recent American Idol idolatry, F and F went over the edge. They lost me as a morning viewer forever.
To borrow from the Dix Chic, I am ashamed that Shepard is from the South. (in his case, Mississippi) Attended private school before going on to Ole Miss and leaving there without graduating. Somebody up there at FNC likes this pretty boy.
"Remember, it is a business, and someone is telling them how they can make the most money."
Gee. It was just a few months ago people were commenting just how FNS/right leaning media were taking all the $$ from the CNNNBCBSABC......
You got that right. I was turned off him before that but that display on the bridge was the last straw.
I remember when I first watched Fox&Friends and it seemed so fresh and innovative. I've probably viewed ten minutes of it in the last year.
Shepard Smith wears more makeup than Sharon Stone.
Parking Lot boy!
I've never like Sheepherder Smith since day 1. I'll never understand why they hired that drama queen. He belongs in L.A. TV covering car chases.
Isn't such a statement usually followed with the obligatory, "Not that there's anything wrong with that"? :)
They were...but now they have decided that a conservative point of view is not making them enough money any more, so they noted the change in wind direction, and tacked accordingly.
Conservativism was a good choice because there was a large market for it. There still is, IMHO, but if Fox continues to dilute its point of view like it has been, its ratings will drop.
