Fox News anchor Shepard Smith took a swipe at President Donald Trump and his assertion that the news media frequently under reports radical Islamic terror attacks.
Smith, a critic of the president, listed several terror attacks that were on the White House’s list of the attacks it believes weren’t reported properly and said that Fox News covered them extensively.
“The president’s assertion is false. The White House knows that it was false or could have known that it was false with a quick Google check, but either did not do so or decided not to tell the truth,” he said.
Smith brought on Wall Street Journal associate editor John Bussey to help deride the president and took another shot at President Trump before he handed the attack to his guest.
“What they’re saying is not true … Again … Why bother?” he said.

Smith often angers his Fox News audience with his contempt for the president.
In July, Smith drew the ire of Fox News fans when he scolded former Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal for saying “all lives matter.” Fans were so angry that they called for his firing in droves on social media.
After a presidential debate with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in October, Smith suggested that then candidate Trump was a fascist because he said he’d have his attorney general investigate Clinton’s use of a private email server.
Some of his other greatest hits include comparing Christians that supported County Clerk Kim Davis not issuing gay marriage licenses to supporters of Sharia law and his fervent defense of Secretary Clinton’s use of a private email server.
Smith didn’t pull any critics to his side with his newest rant.

I cringe when Beckel is on. He was interviewed by Hannity recently and the questions of alcoholism came up. Beckel claimed he’s been sober for over 20 years or so.
I only watch Fox Business. Some good on that channel much moreso than Shep, Bechtel, and the unmentionables.
I just think he has a record of stating his ovwn liberal opinions and views on what is supposed to be a news program.
Fox should just give him his own commentary show and see if he can carry it off. I’d recommend a 2 am slot for his show.
“...Tucker Carlson and Hannity...”
I stopped watching Cavuto because of his constant interrupting. He is worse on FBN.
That was certainly fast......Maybe he was short of cash.
Don’t watch him! Fox can employ who they want.
We aren’t Democrats here.
He’s a total idiot! Journalistic objectivity? Hah!
And get rid of that despicable Obama-bot Marie HARPY, that FNC just (amazingly) hired.
Speaking of harpies: Dump Commie Julie Roginsky!
Yes and Lew Dobbs at Fox Bis is great as well.
Has Shepard Smith asked Hillary Clinton or obama where they were in 9/11/12 and why the men were not rescued. He has had over 4 years to cover this.
I switch to Wendy Williams at 3 pm. Seriously. Anything, Anyone, is better than Liberal Smith. Fox, DO YOU HEAR US????? GET HIM OFF OUR STATION. We tune to Fox for peace. We turn off Democrats.
Judge Jeanine Pirro is great. She is Saturdays on FOX and sometimes on Sunday.
today I forget the topic he said, there are the facts on one side and what the WH says on the other. Is he a news anchor or just a lib who got a gig to “balance” the network?
Fox: Get rid of Shepard Smith, Juan Williams and Bob Bechel. They are not representative of the quality of the network’s programing.

And that Watters fellow. What a waste.
Not ten minutes ago I sent an email to “The Five” saying that Dana has made the show unwatchable.
The station has serious problems with some of their “talent”.
None of the MSM “news” hours are really news; It is all about entertainment and ratings.
Shep is a flaming drama queen, did his eyeliner start running again?
And Neil.
For those of you here who are considerably younger, that’s Jerry Colona who was a mainstay on the old Bob Hope radio show.
Well done Homer! He traveled with Bob Hope on many of his Vietnam USO shows too.
