Now Shep Smith pulling an O'Reilly???
Fox News | 08/06/04 | awestruck

Posted on 08/06/2004 1:00:31 PM PDT by Awestruck

I just saw Shep Smith on Fox, talking about the Swift Vets, and saying "hardly any of these guys actually served with Kerry, I mean they were in the same war..." He also has "experts" on the pro-Kerry side and no one on the other side...what's going on with Fox on this issue???

You know, I may be wrong, but at least I didn't slander a bunch of fine military men with unsubstantiated lies.

I think the GOP ought to run the ads on Kerry testifying before congress. They ought to include the exact part he admits to atrocities. Play it over and over again until PVT England looks like a nun. Kerry was a shill for the Commuists. He used his comrades for private and personal gain. He is lower than pond scum. I served my year. Kerry and Al Gore slipped out early.

I really don't' care if a person is metro, gay, straight or whatever as long as it doesn't color their broadcast delivery.

I thought that I read that Rassman was on Kerry's boat, that he fell off when Kerry made a hard turn and sped off from the sight of the accident, where the other boat hit the mine. The other boats gathered to help the other crew members and pull them out of the water, but Kerry didn't show up until later, when he had determined that there was battle going on. He pulled his own guy out of the water. The other boats pulled out the men whose boat was damaged by the mine. No one but Kerry applied for any medals for the encounter and there was no gunfire at all, just a mine.

I think Hume has beltway disease.

He is spending too must time in DC, currying A-list parties, and not with normal people.

E.D. Hill is a Dem, Kiran Chetry is a lefty Dem, Shep is an idiot (I don't know which party he belongs to), and Judge Napolitano likes gay marriage. We all know that Geraldo and Greta are libs. I don't know about any of the others that I didn't name, but I'd be willing to bet that they're all a bunch of libs.

Steve, Brian, David Asman and Linda Vester are all very good. Too bad they've put Vester in that midday talk show (ala Oprah Winfrey). They're wasting her talent in that venue.

By winning I mean the get back the t.v. air waves, we pretty much own the radio airwaves except for rat radio and that will never engender any numbers.

I'm not going to boycott Fox News .. they are the best news station on TV

I'm with you. I'll watch the good shows and turn the TV off when O'Reilly or Smith are on (Greta too).

Let's not forget Heraldo.

I'll miss the babes, especially Martha MacCallum, Kiran, Heather, Juliet, etc., but let's not forget they let Jennifer Eccleston get away even though they knew we all loved her during the war. Almost every man would stop what they were doing when her rotation came around.

John Gibson and Brit Hume are my favorites on Fox as far as serious news is concerned. On Fox & Friends, the only ones that I can stand are Brian Kilmeade and Juliet Huddy. They are the only ones that seem to have some respect for President Bush. The rest are no doubt a bunch of pro-abort libs who can't wait for Kerry to reside at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

If you can't have an opinion on someone's service record unless you serve in the same vessel, no one can criticize Bush because an F102 holds only the pilot. In sKerry's world, no one served with Bush.

Hey, that's what I said!

But Shemp Smith delivers news in a way that turns me off. Always has.

I absolutly matters when covering the FMA debate. Homosexuals' reporting is absolutly colored to the left.

Homosexuals are generally assigned to cover those types of homo-issues and they are almost universally tainted. (ala boston globe)

All reporters should disclose political contributions, political affiliations. (r) or (d) or (s) just like any other politician.

Shep Smith and BILL O are absolute slimy hacks...

Did anyone ever stop to think that this was all planned from the beginning? Start FoxNews as a "conservative" voice, then gradually changeover to a more liberal network in hopes of slowly but surely changes conservative into moderates/liberals in the process?

I wouldn't put it past them!

There is a gay guy in Miami on am radio who is really radical left wing and everything is tainted, really uncalled for and little or nothing to counter him in S. Fla. the land of the left.

Brit also is questioning the "doctor" status that treated his scratch for his first PH. The Doctor was on Boortz today, he didn't sign the forms when he treated the guys, his medic did when he did the paper work and used a HM1 after his signature. That's "hospital man 1" not MD.

I really do feel for these poor Vets. They are trying so hard to do the right thing in a current enviornment where that doesn't seem to count. Ethics and character don't seem to count for much with too many people. How else Clinton for 2 administrations and then the second team getting elected in New York. Talk about lack of ethics and character.
