Shepard Smith is leaving Fox News.
The midday anchor, who has been with the network since its inception in 1996, will step down from his role as Chief News Anchor and Managing Editor of the network’s breaking news unit and Anchor of Shepard Smith Reporting effective immediately the network said in a release.
'Shep is one of the premier newscasters of his generation and his extraordinary body of work is among the finest journalism in the industry,' said Fox News Media president Jay Wallace.
'His integrity and outstanding reporting from the field helped put FOX News on the map and there is simply no better breaking news anchor who has the ability to transport a viewer to a place of conflict, tragedy, despair or elation through his masterful delivery.'

This dope should have been dragged off the air and fired during his Hurricane Katrina coverage. He and Geraldo Rivera were an embarrassment to Fox News during that disgraceful episode.
Adios to the fudgepacking soy boy!
I guess it only goes to show....you really don’t TUCK with Tucker Carlson.
Never saw any ratings reports for his show.
I’m glad there is some uncertainty about it. With certainty, you know what is coming but it’s dang boring.
Whistlelower... Of sorts...
Lucia is the name he and Gio gave to a piece of 2-1/2 inch "exercise" pipe they installed in their living room.
Wonder if Shep will take Napolitano with him. They can sashay out into the sunset together, hand in hand.

Fox News has nothing to do with Disney. I get so tired of people saying it does.
He long ceased to be a good influence.
Time to be a good riddance
I don’t trade anything to do with Disney (although I should because ..well that is another story)
I just glanced at an article. You are correct. Disney not involved with Fox News as a stand alone company as per article I read.
The change in attitude comes from Rupert turning over the reigns to children.
Yes....they are BUTTIES!!
I don’t get “Panama”.
Good riddance! He was an out right liar.
btw, there was a female Murdoch that has been associated for a long time with Master Chef. I noticed this last season I didn’t see her name on the credits...and Hell’s Kitchen is not on the schedule.
I guess Disney isn’t a fan of Gordon!
But what other reasons could be for this sudden departure?
Mental breakdown? He has become unhinged when talking about Trump.
Sudden drop in ratings?
Somebody on FR suggested he was the fake whistleblower.
Caught with somebody underage?
His blood pressure goes dangerously high at the prospect of Trump winning in 2020? Soros made him a better offer?
Thanks for the laugh!!!
Stheperd Sthmith- typical Ole Miss fairyboy. Goes off in a huff like the Ole Miss Queen he is.
that is exactly what i picture. he got pissy over the tucker carlson brouhaha
how many times does trump emphasized bad ratings
