Should Fox Fire Shepard Smith?
Poletical ^ | April 1st, 2017 | T. Carter

Fox News has been known to separate its programming into “opinion” and “news”, but some parts of its news wing have fallen prey to the beasts of fake news. One in particular is Fox News' Shepard Smith Reporting, which has been dominated by the unsubstantiated claims surrounding Russia's meddling in the US election and the non-existent Trump-Russia connections. Almost daily, Shepard Smith wades into rants and allegations about Trump's connections to Russia while ignoring the larger, real and substantiated connections between Russia and the Clintons. For this, petitions and calls to have Smith fired have been growing.

Shepard Smith is also a managing editor at Fox News, in charge of breaking news. This has started the alarm bells among the Fox News audience, causing explosions on Twitter that call for Smith's immediate resignation. A petition at Change.org is nearing 3,000 and will likely surpass that by the time this is published.

They should before he sues Roger Ailes for making unwanted “sexual advances” to him. Suing FOX is the new “next big thing”. Ailes screwed up. Bad.

No, just put him on one of the opinion shows as the opposing far left liberal view.

Sooner than immediately. He is a nasty little piece of work. Should have been fired many times already.

He’s paid $7-8 million for an early afternoon news hour.

He was supposed to take over breaking news in the afternoons and evenings but that has evaporated.

He’ll be gone soon enough, Fox News has a deep bench that would do the program for a fraction of that.

Well the last time Shepard was angry he tried to run a woman in a parking space over right?
So no matter what, keep him out of cars.
