1. He and Chris Wallace are the only Fox News anchors I can stand.

[TheManagement]

2. one of the few real "anchors" at fixed noise

[Narkos]

3. You know, gotta agree. I like him. Maybe he'll change Faux for the better n/t

[BrklynLiberal]

4. dupe...

[BrklynLiberal]

5. Nick DiPaolo cannot be too great a "comedian":.. I never even heard of him.

Shep Smith is the only person I have seen from FAUX NOISE that seems to have any grip on reality.

[MadMaddie]

6. Question is, how long will Shep last at Fox?

[Unsane]

7. He just signed a big contract with them.

[Tutonic]

8. Haha! He's trying to retool for the next 8 years. Check out

Fox archives. This guy ain't no friend to progressives.

[cyndensco]

24. That is how I see him. He is not a friend.

The Smith videos I watched on YouTube show him very passionate when defending the role of the media. He may be "fairer and more balanced" than the other jackasses at fox but he is still, clearly, on the other side.

[Colobo]

9. Shepherd and Wallace are good journalists. Wallace is an equal opportunity jerk

which is fine.

[firedupdem]

10. I still can't watch that filth. They can take that entire network off

the air. At least he said something intelligent.

[snowbear]

14. I'm with you firedupdem... I don't watch ANY of them ------ ever!

I completely ignore Faux all together..............

[Life Long Dem]

11. Oh please! How little he forgets.

Except when it comes to this bloop in the radar which triggered off suspicions of the media being nice but still being up to something. Thus, we see the example of why right here.

[Borgnine]

12. I remember when he snapped at another Fox anchor during Katrina.

They were trying to downplay how bad the situation was, and he went off on him. He gained a lot of respect from me for that, and it's nice to see that they have someone working for them with integrity.

[hogwyld]

27. I think Katrina really was a watershed moment for Shep

Ever since that epiphany, he's been the voice of reason over there. I'm no fan of Fux noise, but I have a lot of respect for Sheppard.

[bridgit]

13. Don't care about Huff Po, he's a chump...

[JI7]

15. i wonder how he is treated by others there since he is gay

has he talked about the anti gay propositions on his show ?

he isn't as bad as others but that's not saying much.

[youthere]

16. Isn't he also the one who called out JTP for his "Obama vote=Death to Israel" BS?

[magdalena]

17. Yep.

Clip here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eSJuWgZGYo

[DainBramaged]

18. Doesn't ANYONE remember when he HIT another reporter to get a parking space?

http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0DIZ/is_48_12/ai_80191739


Fox News Channel anchor Shepard Smith, one of the swarm of reporters covering the recount battle, hit a local cable news reporter with a car in a dispute over a parking spot, according to news reports.

Smith, who anchors FNC's 7 p.m. Fox Report, was trying to park his car in a space amid the satellite trucks ringing the state capitol Nov. 17 when Maureen Walsh, a freelancer working for Bay News 9, said she was saving the spot for her colleagues.

Smith cursed at her and hit her with the car, a white Mazda Millenia, she told police, according to the St. Petersburg Times. Walsh was released from a local hospital with bruises on her knees and legs.

[cherokeeprogressive]

29. Saving the spot for her colleagues? I'd have hit her too.

[DainBramaged]

31. Uh, really?

:wtf:

[fujiyama]

19. I've always found him amusing...A bit goofy, but better than the rest on his station

He was actually really effective during Katrina. And there was a great clip of him on election night where he was interviewing Nader and really blasted him for calling Obama an Uncle Tom.

[Monk06]

20. Shep Smith, Rex Reid's smarter younger brother.

[IsItJustMe]

21. You have a very short memory and attention span. I remember him from the 2000 and 2004 elections.

He is just going with the flow right now. He is a wolf in sheeps clothing.

Believe me now or later, but I know you are going to believe me.

[Jennicut]

22. I like Shep. He may be a Republican but he is okay.

Remember he questioned Joe the Plumber as well. The man has at least one ounce of integrity in comparison to the other Fox losers. Chris Wallace does too, he really took it to McLame when he was on. Maybe they recently remembered they are journalists. Who knows? Since Glen Beck left CNN maybe they should leave Fox.

[wyldwolf]

23. He and I have a similar interest in Jennifer Lopez

[NJGeek]

25. Classic Curb Job

[Boudica the Lyoness]

26. Because we won I take a quick peek

at Fox now and again. The other day, as soon as I put it on, a woman doing the weather announced she had to go to the bathroom! Yesterday there was a woman who was a anchor saying, "well, duh".
I can remember the Repugs always talking about the 'dumbing down of America'.

[This One]

28. Agree on Shep, but what's the deal with Brit Hume? He always looks hungover.

[obiwan]

30. En Contraire, Pierre. Shep seems alright to you...

...but in reality he is still a sullen bully Republican apologist. Watch him consistently over time, and in particular LISTEN to what he says. You will see what I mean.

[AlinPA]

32. Fox "News" is pure republican propaganda. Their "reporters" are slime. nt
