I agree with every word you had written, but I would change the word "even" with "especially." FOX needed Shepard's voice to at least resemble a news organization. FOX began a downward spiral after Shepard left (and look where they are now).

Too true. Cavuto speaks truth as well.

Yeah. Just a shred

Exactly. I still would have thought North Carolina was a closer election race than Arizona and the democrats picked up more than 5 house seats.

I see your point, and I don't disagree, but as long as the story itself stays intact and legit, that snark is a pittance of sin compared to the fabrication and distortion in most news stories.

@@kinjiru731 I agree that there is a vast difference between editorializing and propaganda, but once upon a time it wasn't too much to ask for them to just accurately report the news of the day.

@@NolanBuchanan We're so far from those days that I think it's more practical to hope people like Shepard Smith represent baby steps in the right direction. Hoping everything just reverts to days well gone by seems too big of an ask. Mind you, I'd love it if things went back to reporting facts, I'm just being a realist.

Yes. He does not come to this table "with clean hands", as attorneys would say.

So true.

And Neil CAVUTO

Because they said things you agreed with? Want to learn something? When you talk to Republicans their main focuses are government corruption, China, foreign policy, immigration policy, gdp, economic currency value, transgender men going into restrooms with young girls, abortion rights instead of emphasizing protection and abstinence and why Obama gave 150 billion to Iran🤷🤦 and no one on the left acts like it happened.

@@doloresreynolds8145 doesn't look like it. A simple titel and people are already screaming. Like : Trump called dead veterans "losers". Or a titel like: McConnell believes impeachment push will help rid GOP of Trump. Then then talk about a "source" claiming that they all said these things. But a little research shows you that it's just an article from a other place, both these cases the NYT. Just switching some words so that it sounds like they said it. Even when the source is someone that know how they think.. See thats not news, thats PROPAGANDA. What more, it brings all the hate. Republicans hate it cause they know or atleast believe it's "fake news". And cause it is wrong as we could all see in the end, bring hate from democrats, cause some of them think these people lie again. It makes it all allot easier when they dont show these people speak and we just have to take it a face value. Sometimes they will show small clips or put a diffrend answer to a diffrend question. Now these some examples of CNN, but you get them on FOX NEWS and MSNBC and ABC and all the other MSM. In America the main news cahnnels have long since lost their trustability. If you really want news just read up a few local news stations/papers. Not 1 but multiple, cause a story always has sides.

He didn't get concerned until Trump was in office for about 3 years. Morals? He should have outed Fox years ago. Republicans trying to wash their hands is sickening. His diminishing returns were obviously self serving. And still feels he was doing good. Ha.

Haha, He just got canned from CNBC.

I understand him not wanting to watch. And yet, were he to listen, his inside knowledge of their people and the culture may make him uniquely qualified to contest their B.S. in a manner that weans some viewers off of the Fox kool-aid.

He is worse he is a traitor at least stick to your principles .Us smart people don't need him

Years ago, before Shepard left FOX, I would hate the fact that I'd have to tune to FOX to get Shepard Smith. As you indicated, truth matters in reporting news. I always felt that Shepard was one of the best at giving us honest reporting.

@Julie B Wrong, you're the "Drip," he was talking Hypothetically. Shep put his money where his mouth is. And he's refusing to Pile on Fox, the way Christiana is asking him to...

Cool that he woke up but the damage hes done thru his career his partly what we are seeing here. Being complicit is never the way to go

He left , cause he was the only one with and integrity! But Chris Wallace might be next, cause he stands up and corrects his Fox colleagues when he knows they’re spreading false narratives!!!

@Julie B relisted.. Shep said "if" he did that.

@@delovely1577 He was never complicit.... But, he WAS under contract. If anything, FOX couldn't stop him from his reporting until his contract expired, especially as a senior anchor.

Unless you're accredited.

And people in the country need to critically think.

Remember that a judge in the case with Tucker Carlson actually sided with him actually stating that anyone in their right mind wouldn't believe anything he said. Unfortunately many people do believe him and that's the problem. That is a large reason why we have had threats against election officials, school boards, Fauchi and more.

There are also Chris Wallace and Neil Cavuto ...

@Julie B I think Shephard was just using Don as a hypothetical/ example. Shepard does not actually think Don spreads false facts but was saying even if someone as reliable as Don starts lying he would make himself stop watching.

Amen. The network is pure propaganda that subscribes to tribalism. If anything, I feel like Fox News has been nothing but a let down for true conservatives.

I agree totally. The fact of the matter is most "news anchors" are really doing opinion.

Let's start by reenacting the laws that insist upon truth in the news. Those never should have been rescinded in the first place.

I was particularly amused when Shep named Don Lemon, only to clarify that he only used him as an example because they're good friends and Don is one of the good guys. I can see the clickbait title now: "Shep Smith EVISCERATES CNN's Don Lemon in SHOCKING Interview!"

Comment of the day

@Weed Man agreed they treat him terribly but he is handsomely paid and he knows he’s in the right

This is a brilliant comment and is so true🤝

If you want to begin with the truth than don't start at CNN. That's why he started at FOX News.

Worse. The phrase Fox "news" is just another name for elitists opinions.

Big facts

The problem is what one person considers facts another considers opinion.

We have similar radio stations based on opinions of so called ‘celebrities’ and they build such a huge following with those who echo these viewpoints and align with their own beliefs ‘I like him/her he/she tells it like it is’ and opinions are like assholes everyone has one. It gets to the point that their bullshit filters are just permanently switched off.

F No such thing as alternative facts. A fact is a truth without judgment. Once disagreement appears, it’s become opinion.

@@borntodoit8744 0⁰

I can't really respect him because he's still doing the same thing but for the other side now.

The Problem is not the media as much as it is social media. Most kids (25 and under) don't watch mainstream news. You could argue that most others don't either. Twitter, UKposts and Facebook is what the new generation turn to to get ''news''. But you are right, new outlets do take liberties with what they call news. Both sides are guilty of it.

People should be required to determine for themselves what is opinion? I sure don't need you or the government telling me what to believe. I believe examine the information presented and make my own decisions. You should try it. It's called freedom.

"News" networks that are only about propaganda (Fox NEWS network, NEWSmax, One America NEWS Network) and aren't registered as a news network (they're all registered with the FCC as Entertainment Networks) should not be allowed to use the word/term "News" in their channel name. Fox News would have to become "Fox Opinion". One America could just drop "News" and call themselves "One America Network". Newsmax would completely have to change their name. And if they still pose as a news network, running newscasts that spew propaganda, pull their license.

I quite liked when referencing Fox he said “I haven’t been watching, and I don’t plan to”

Wow ! 😳 “Let's be realistic," Chuck Todd said on his Meet the Press Daily program. "Biden's first crucial task is to vaccinate America, to fulfill that promise to get 100 million vaccinations in his first 100 days." "The ultimate success or failure of his presidency may hinge simply on that one promise," the MSNBC host continued. "And it might be his only way to immediately begin cauterizing American's social, economic and political wounds." "Let's put it this way. If Biden wants to succeed, he has to fulfill that first vaccination promise," Todd added. "If Biden doesn't get it right, he will have failed on the job he was elected to do." I bet incompetent Joe Biden won’t even come close; besides he’s going to be a one term president if he isn’t replaced because of the senility before 4- years are up.
