Why Shep Smith finally walked out of Fox News for good

With President Trump actively distorting the truth and many of his own colleagues helping him do it, the Fox News star prided himself on anchoring a newscast that countered the network's pro-Trump opinion shows. The way Smith saw it, he was making sure that accurate information was getting on Fox's air. "I wonder," he told a Time magazine reporter last year, "if I stopped delivering the facts, what would go in its place in this place that is most watched, most listened, most viewed, most trusted? I don't know."

Shemp Smith: Newsman? http://bit.ly/9OrhdT http://fb.me/GJqvGis1— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) October 28, 2010

It’s an article about hope. He hopes this is why Sheppie resigned, so he wrote an article with no real sources, and no contact with the subject, all about why he resigned. But it’s completely made up. Might be right, might be wrong, CNN doesn’t care. This version fits the narrative.

Pure unadulterated crap. CNN telling the truth, much less backing up Fox and a former anchor? What pure crap from the Crap News Network.

I see the problem: He believes his own press releases.

Drama Queen Shemp is no doubt using the back and forth beef with Tucker as a pretext to dramatically leave Fox.

Shep pranced out of Fox with a boot up his ass.

At last, this screed from the Communist News Network explains everything. We are now enlightened!

I might add that I cannot believe how many threads have been posted here at FR about Shep Smith’s departure.

In the great scheme of things, the career of one limp-wristed newscaster doesn’t seem to be of any great moment.

Someone explain: Why so much attention?

This POS CNN hack fails to mention that the pro-Trump guys who give opinions are on opinion shows. Shep the creep was giving his opinion day in and day out on what was supposed to be the actual unbiased part of the programming. They’re all right when they say FNC is biased news. That part of the organization is as left as CNN and MSNBC.

universally disliked here and sheer joy he is gone

similar to when Mccain kicked the bucket or when the Devil finally decides to claim the Clintons

There wasn’t a bathroom specifically for gay Democrat activists pretending to be conservative news anchors?

[lightman]

Hope and change.

Where did I hear that before?

[dirtymac]

He has been a pain for a long time and we are glad that he will not be around anymore for us to pick on.

[RummyChick]

Oh he will be back. Probably at CNN

“Shep’s exit from the building was planned and executed by Shep with Fox’s complete approval and the full support of FOX News – he was not remotely escorted out,” a Fox News spokesperson said.”

Ya gotta admit he was great in "Predator".

Especially when he set off that nuclear-bomb-on-his-forearm thingy.
