Agreed! Unfortunately, Shrimp Smith is not merely a reporter but is in charge of all breaking news reporting at Fox News (according to what I’ve read). He gets paid $5+ million per year to do this execrable job. Biggest blunder Roger Ailes ever made......
Maybe in the transition out of the Ailes era someone at Fox News can be persuaded to finally dump this Shep clown in favor of someone honest and competent.
Yeah, “reporter” was not the right term for Smith. As you say, he’s their in-studio “anchor” for mid-day breaking news. And when your anchor is full of hot air, the shift drifts.
