Fox News chief anchor Shepard Smith leaving the conservative network day . . .
CNBC ^ | 10/11/2019 | Dan Mangan

Fox News chief news anchor Shepard Smith is leaving the conservative cable network after 23 years, it was announced Friday.

Smith’s appearance Friday on “Shepard Smith Reporting” was his last appearance on the network, according to Fox News. In addition to working as chief news anchor, Smith had been managing editor of the network’s breaking news unit.

Smith’s departure follows a report that he was warned last month by Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott and network president Jay Wallace not to criticize the network’s evening anchor Tucker Carlson again.

Smith had said on the air that it was “repugnant” for Carlson not speaking up in defense of Fox News contributor Andrew Napolitano after a Carlson guest, attorney Joseph di Genova, called Napolitano a “fool” for saying that President Donald Trump had broken the law. Di Genova is a legal adviser to Trump.

HE ABSOLUTELY WAS! I just posted on a more current thread, that I had heard Shep was leaving because I had tuned into the Five before Cavuto has signed off. He sounded so sad! Bwahahahahahahaha!

He long ceased to be a good influence.

Time to be a good riddance.

Oh how I wish he would do an OPUS here!
His mascara would be running down his face as he clutched his pearls in despair.

Maybe Whorealdo can quit bothering everybody over on Hannity and go annoy Shemp’s fans for a while?

Hemmer is already on for 3 hours and Harris F. for 2 hours, each weekday.

I can’t think of anyone already at Fox News who is suited to just jump around on little snippets of news that is happening at the time, like little Sheppy did. Most are more specialized toward certain topics of news.

"In my day, the test pattern was an . . . eek . . . Indian Chief!"

Any resemblance to Lieawatha? Somebody with some computer graphics skills should work on that.
