Fox News announced late Friday afternoon that Shepard Smith is leaving the network after 23 years. Sources tell Mediaite that it was Smith’s decision to leave the network and that he was not fired.
One of the reasons why I stopped watching Fox News was because of passive aggressive Liberals like Shepard Smith they had on the payroll, and as the years ticked by he became more and more hostile to anything Conservative or Christian. He wasn't the only reason I switched Fox News off, but certainly a major contributing factor. Anyone who uses the phrase "speaking truth to power" is not anyone I want to spend much time with. But when Tucker Carlson
slapped backed at Smith the other night, and rightly so, it kind looked like ol' shep's days on the air were at an end. I will not miss having to sit through news clips on YouTube watching Smith openly defend Democrats and the Democratic Party.
Shepard Smith Leaving Fox News
FROM MEDIAITE: In a moving statement at the end of his Friday show, Smith announced the news, and said it would be his last broadcast.
“Even in our currently polarized nation, it’s my hope that the facts will win the day, that the truth will always matter, that journalism and journalist will thrive,” Smith said.
The Fox News anchor said his agreement with the network meant he would not be reporting elsewhere in the near future.
Over the past few years, Smith has been something of an iconoclast at the ratings-dominant and right-leaning network. His opening statements of his 3 p.m. news show often offered critical points of view directed at President
Donald Trump or even Fox News opinion show hosts.
