Fox News' Shepard Smith has been particularly outspoken and fired up of late about the crisis in the Gulf.
The "Studio B" and "FOX Report" anchor has made a series of impassioned comments in the past few weeks about BP, the oil spill, and the leak's effect on the Gulf Coast states, one of which his home state of Mississippi.
A regular target has been BP CEO Tony Hayward, to whom he said last month in a scathing commentary, "At least act like you care." He also described one of Hayward's comments early on as "beyond snotty."
On "Studio B" yesterday, Smith again criticized the BP exec after comments Hayward made -- and subsequently apologized for -- over the weekend: "What he said there was, 'I want my life back.' Does he remember that 11 people were killed in this rig? Does he remember that? You want your life back, really Tony Hayward? WOW."
Smith's ire has also at times been directed at the overall clean-up effort. Yesterday, on Don Imus' show, Smith said, "They can't even get soft berms and hard berms and sand levees down there to try to stop this thing because they're in the middle of a process of evaluating whether it might work? Screw a process." (h/t J$P)
In the midst of a conversation about the impact on the Southern coastline last week, Smith went so far as to say:
This could end up being the story of our generation, couldn't it? Bigger than the attacks on the World Trade Center, bigger than most anything, if 14 million people live down there and a way of life... it's just unthinkable.
F A G F I T !!!!
i have noticed this and he has gotten on my last nervew with it. i can’t stand him anyway, but the total lack of objectivity is beyond the pale. i don’t know if it’s because he’s from down there or what, but the BP bashing, no matter how deserved, is ridiculous.
Drama Queen.
i don’t know where else to ask this, but does anyone know why Judge Napolitano left Brian and the Judge? was there a falling out or what?
It’s all that mascara. It’s gone to the boy’s brain.
Hey, Shepard; Obama says he took charge day 1, BP’s blame started when the leak started.
In the end they will pay for it all, but Obama said he is in charge and is taking responsibility. If this leak takes till Christmas to stop, it is Obama’s fault.
Shep should un-bunch his panties. BP is working on it.
Shep’s melt downs are enough to make you love hurricanes and oil spills
All I have been able to ascertain by observation is that Shep appears to be a little commie-lib whiner. As to his sexual preferences, I’m not sure. But if I heard he likes to dress up like Little Bo-Peep I would not be too surprised.
Tell me about it.....and I’m from the South. *rolls eyes*
I don't like Shep...he's NOT real smart, IMO. He drives me nuts repeating the first word of his sentences... 2 or 3 times!
If anyone knows snotty, it’s Shep!
I detest “Shemp” Smith. What a tool.
Sorry, I don’t know the answer.
Well, be fair. You know how he likes to get oiled up.
figure fox viewers will read the thread and maybe someone will know : )
Every time this man is on the screen, it gets turned. He’s more hysterical commentator than objective journalist.
