Sheppard Smith wouldn’t know a news story if it punched him in the nose.
Do you think that any show anchor pours thru the feeds and says ummmm let's take that one or ignore that one and.... He's just reading the FEED sent him on the teleprompter. Think of the best anchor or the worst and they all do the same. Even moderators like Hannity and Colm, do that when they discuss any breaking event. They will interrupt their own monologue only for a direct network feed.
