'Get that hack out of Fox News': Shepard Smith leaves viewers irate after six-minute segment debunking theory of Hillary Clinton's 'crimes' in Uranium One deal
Smith aired six-minute segment debunking far-right conspiracy theories about Hillary Clinton's alleged wrongdoing in a sale of American uranium Smith said many claims about Clinton's supposed role in the uranium sale were 'inaccurate' 'Shep Smith needs to be fired for his biased reporting,' tweeted one Fox News viewer in response to the segment
Fox News anchor Shepard Smith infuriated a large number of the network's viewers on Tuesday after a six-minute segment in which he debunked far-right conspiracy theories about Hillary Clinton's alleged wrongdoing in a sale of American uranium.
The segment was surprising given that a number of broadcasters on Smith's own network have promoted the idea that Clinton broke the law in approving the sale to foreign buyers who also donated to her husband's foundation.
Smith said many claims about Clinton's supposed role in the uranium sale were 'inaccurate' - even as President Donald Trump and his supporters are calling for a federal investigation.
The Fox News host began the segment by summarizing the particulars of the sale of Uranium One, a Canadian firm with rights to mine US uranium.
Rosatom, a Russian firm, acquired a majority stake in Uranium One in 2010 and bought the remainder of the company in 2013.

The Fox fairy needs to flutter off.
F*ck that little ole Butt Buddy! He’s the queen of Faux Snooze!!l
Hey, Shep... MSNBG is calling.
Says who?
Shrimp Smith is auditioning for new gig with CNN or MSNBC.
Can’t stand that POS.
He is always left-biased, it’s just that this time he made it more obvious than ever.
I saw that segment and laughed at him. Either he is really dumb or simply a hack for the left.
Or perhaps Vice TV?
Auditioning for a spot on cnn?.........wouldn’t be the 1st to go.
ummm, both
A Refrigerator doesn't fart when you pull out the meat.
He recited all of the scams Clinton was setting up to hide her criminality, exactly as CNN and MSNBC have been doing. They don’t need his help.
It’s still a biz, and it still has to meet the ‘opinion formation’ goals of the ultra-wealthy.
Dear Fox News advertisers,
When Shep Smith comes on, I change the channel.
It sounds like his script was prepared by the Lefties at Factcheck
The pillow biter should have been fired after his Katrina theatrics. I have not watched him since.
FOX News could redeem itself if Bret Baier did a timeline and step-by-step explanation of U1 like he did for Benghazi - like a half-hour special.
Queen Smith fills the 3PM “Cat Lady” demographic. The same demo that Liberace and Merv Griffin made their living from.
I think he is both.
