Shepard Smith, Hero to Left-Wing Bloggers, Slams GOP Chair
FoxNews ^ | 03-22-2010 | Montag813

Shepard Smith is the DARLING of DailyKos, TPM, ThinkProgress and Media Matters. Why? Because he is a hard left-wing news anchor on what is supposedly the "Right-Wing Network"--FoxNews.

Moreover, Smith routinely bashes Republicans and gives Democrats a pass. Today was no different, as he blasted Republican chairman Michael Steele. But don't believe me...read what a Kos blogger had to say about the exchange.

Then you might want to email Roger Ailes and let him know what you think of his "anchorman"...

I've written more than once in praise of Shepherd Smith as the best newsperson on TV; today he proved it once again interviewing Michael Steele. I wish I had a transcript.

Things I remember include Micheal Steele talking about his new "Fire Nancy Pelosi" website, and Shep asking him, "Who's going to join your 'Fire Nancy Pelosi' movement? The people with preexisting conditions who can now get insurance? The people who couldn't afford insurance before and can now afford it?" Steele sputtered in response.
Then it was on to the language of the Republicans. After a series of quotes including language like "Armageddon," Shep asked Steele, "Armaggedon? Is that appropriate?" When Steele defended such language as the "feelings of the people," Shep asked him, "Armageddon? Do you know what Armageddon is?"

Then Steele got onto small business and how they hate the bill. "Is that the same small businesses who are getting a tax credit because of the bill?" asked Shep. More sputtering from Steele.

And to top it all off, later, referring to Bart Stupak, Smith actually referred to him as "anti-abortion" and not "pro-life." I don't know of a single other newscaster on any other station (not sure about Rachel) who would use that language.

I think Shep and Maddow are the same person.

Nah, Maddow is far more “manly” than Shep...

No surprise. Shepard Smith showed his colors back during the 2006 election. Fox has been in the enemy camp for quite some time. Glen Beck is the only exception.

Everyone knows Shep Smith is a barely-closeted turd-burgalar.

Shep’s status as a sodomite sausage sucker colors his every report and entire world view.

Who’s going to fire Nancy? How about the majority of Americans who did not want THIS bill. How about the people (and our children and grandchildren) who are going to have to pay for it. how about the majority of Doctors (lib docs excluded).

Ah, Shepard Smith...proof that Rex Reed, improbable as it might seem, has fathered a child.

I saw this and turned off my TV. Smith sounded like he had the DNC talking points in his hand. Saying that Steele was sputtering is a good description. Isn’t there someone better out there?
