Calls to Get Rid of Fox News’ Shepard Smith After He’s Unable to Control His Contempt for Trump
Tea Party ^ | Biz Pak Staff

Posted on 02/09/2017 9:07:44 AM PST by HomerBohn

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.

Fox News has gone Full-Liberal. Yesterday Eric Bolling said he thought the current 1 million legal immigrants per year “should be tripled” and Dana PeRino agreed saying “that’s a conservative position.”

If that’s “conservative” then I’m no conservative.

FNC has a few conservatives here and there but not many. Maria, Stu Varney, and Lou Dobbs over at Fox Business is where you go for conservative opinion and OANN for “straight” news.”

FNC is dead.

I recently got rid of cable and landline phone, my bill now is $65 instead of $204. I get my news from FR, Grudge, few others on line. Invested in a Roku and an antenna to watch local channels, if ever. No need to pay for cable as I seldom watched television. Feel very liberated.

I still try to watch The Five. But I’m guessing that the producers are telling them to let Beckel and Williams talk more. Previously they were shutting Williams down. I really can’t watch it anymore. I like Greg, Eric, and KG although they often miss some really good stuff. Oh well.

I didn’t watch him or CNN during the election so I may need a refresher.

Bob is a liberal but he also has an open mind. You can discuss issues with him in a non violent manner. I really liked the way that he supported Charleton Heston when attacked by Jim Carey.

Juan Williams does provide the Left’s view and is not a jerk.
Beckel is just a Leftist Ahole. He is also a terrible debater, attacking people instead of providing facts. The other night he was saying that Sessions is a white supremacist. Greg on the Five told him to prove it and he couldn’t come up with anything except that the Dems prevented Sessions form being a judge because he’s a supremacist!!! Fire his butt! I can’t believe they brought him back.

We know Fox wants to represents both sides. But please bring people who use facts to buttress their argument, not frothing at the mouth leftists whose preferred method of debate is to smear conservatives with baseless accusations! They could get any recent college student to do that!

Tucker has become one of my favorites at Fox.

When is ratings continue to rise, then the network will understand.

I have been switching to Fox Business when Shep comes on. He always was a liberal, but since Trump started running, and now that he's POTUS, he really crosses the line. He's supposed to be a News anchor, and should be unbiased. Most of their other shows are opinion, so I don't mind if they let someone left wing have their say. Bechel has gotten really boorish since he was allowed back. I'm not so sure he's still on the wagon. Juan is pretty benign. It's funny when he tries to cling to his view despite any facts they give him. Gotta have a pet lib or two to spice things up! 😉 I find myself watching Fox Business more and more. I wish they had an a la carte menu for cable. I'm tired of paying for all the fake news channels,and there are far too many Spanish channels.

Can’t stand the “First 100 days” Martha seems to have slipped leftward. Let’s have two hours of Tucker, or better yet an hour of Denis Miller would be fine. As for drama queen Shemp, I turned him off after Katerina, he’s such a waste.

I, too, watch Tucker and Hannity but have maintained my loyalty to Fox and Friends in the mornings. I’ve watched that bunch since before 9/11, and my interest in Trump started there as he frequented that show for the last several years. When I heard him bash obama and talk about how America needs to restore its manufacturing sector, he got my attention. And I was thrilled when he ran for POTUS

Shep and Juan are pretty safe.

Shep has an insignificant slot and enables Fox to showvthey’re so balanced that they even have a liberal host.

Same with Juan.

Just tune into to what you like.

There are more important battles than Shepard Smith. I haven’t heard that name in a long time.
