Shepard Smith likes to close his shows with “From the Journalists at Fox Newsâ€, a comment that is obviously designed to mark the distinction with prime time commentators. This tag line would not disturb me if it weren’t so obvious that his reporting is skewed, not expressly liberal mind because that does not bother me as I’m used to it. It’s his pompous,smug demeanor in presenting the “newsâ€.
At the start of his 3pm show he reported President Obama’s flip flop on gay marriage. As he went into the commercial break he said this: “The President Is Now In the 21st Centuryâ€. Of course one could interpret the decision as tossing thousands of years of human civilization under the bus, but that might be considered a commentary lacking in journalistic objectivity. Of course Shep Smith lacks objectivity especially if history seems to contradict his personal sensibilities.
It is his latter comments the are annoying as provided in the link at Mediaite.com. In a back and forth with Bret Baier at least the latter remained objective and balanced. It was his allusion to gay rights and marriage being at a place similar to that of the Civil Rights Movement. He also commented on “States Rights†derisively, of course. I’m tired of this ignorant parallel. It’s time for Shep Smith’s “teachable momentâ€.

He's a smug, smart-ass, pompous, look-down-his-nose-at-you son of a bitch.

I have a solution... I don't watch him.

Fox just needs to go ahead and terminate his contract prior to next year and let him head off to MSNBC or CNN where he can pal around with Don Lemon or Thomas Roberts and be much...MUCH happier.

I absolutely agree about the smug, smirky way SS does his talking head thing.
He tries to be cute and entertaining and even a little sensationalist, but he comes off looking like a dipstick.

We need a return to the Fairness Doctrine to make sure his brand of vitriol and hatred doesn't pollute America's airways and corrupt the proper thinking of people</du>
eesh! It sounded icky just pretending to say it.

It came out several years ago, when he threw a huge public homo hissy fit about his assigned parking place at the Fox studios in Manhattan.........claimed that he was being discriminated against due to his "orientation".

He needs a Cosmo and a Mydol, then.
He's not even a good news reader. He's constantly flubbing words and misreading the Telepromptr. I can hear it in my head, "something something, uh, rather, something else."

Then there is the fact that he never mentions family during the banter that takes place between him and others.

His bio says that he was briefly married...then divorced...no kids.

Ever watch Bob Beckel on The Five? He can't read a teleprompter to save his life. He is supposedly a recovering alcoholic and drug user, I'd bet you money he is still abusing something.
SS has always pissed me off, he sensationalizes everything.

I recently heard Stossel rolls Shep's way too.
