Fox News staffers worry Shepard Smith's departure will further push out facts
CNN ^ | Oct. 12, 2019 | Brian Stelter

As soon as Shep Smith signed off Fox News on Friday, he rode down a freight elevator to the underground garage where a car and driver were waiting. His departure was emotional enough as is -- he didn't want a tearful goodbye in his studio or the newsroom.

He knew his colleagues would have questions and concerns. The big question: What will Fox's news operation look like without him?

Saturdays are when they have all Negative coverage of Trump, from 9 TO 5, from the FOX kiddie benchers. Twirps and Twits with long faces, joyless and bored.

Never watch FOX on Saturday. It will save your lamps.

LOL yeah I can bet people tuned in by the millions to hear Shepard Smith tell the “Facts” LOL..for commies like CNN, the “Truth” is only what Media Matters and the DNC tell them to say every morning. Why do you think Obama got ZERO negative coverage for 8 years, they reported on NOTHING he did that was negative, NOTHING..because they were all in his pocket

Can't wait for the new Trump News Network (TNN) for real news!

We already have one. It's called One America News Now (OANN). Channel 1208 on ATT Uverse.

Isn’t it a little unscrupulous to write an article like this about your competition?

That’s because the fact news “reporters” won’t recognize a fact unless it bites them in the a$$. It’s like watching the blind leading the retards leading the blind retards.

Shep reporting the new was an opinion show.

Well, when Shep has his tell-all interview on “The View”, the real story will come out. Hope they fumigated that elevator he rode on his way out.
