3. I thought Shepard's selling point of his show is no commentary on news

Only news reported and let the viewers decides what to think about the news. So he might stay away from giving his opinion on Trump or Biden.

10. I'm not a regular viewer, but haven't noticed excessive fear mongering, just factual urgency...

The GOP is trying to suppress votes six ways from Sunday, and you (rather we) have to be prepared to see it and to counter it.

is falling BS. So far I think I will make it a regular. I no longer spend hours watching the same stuff on CNN or MSNBC like the Republicans do
Fox it is just depressing.

Just the facts, ala Joe Friday. I will probably watch it regularly.

The segment with the former head of the FDA on covid19 was excellent. Smith asked good questions and Gottlieb answered honestly and when he didn't know, said so. He even disclosed he's on Pfizer's board. He said there are theraputics that should be here by the end of the year, but doesn't expect widespread availability of a vaccine until late spring 2021. He thinks we have one more peak/surge before things settle down for good.
