Shepard Smith was a big part of the real news side of FOX, the other bigger side being what can only be called their entertainment side, the side that deals in editorial work by people who say what their viewers want to hear. The real news side was obviously at odds with the opinion side when they set the record straight on things the entertainment side have wrong.

Of course it is no surprize that their viewers reject real news when it goes against what they want to hear. As one of the real news reporters said on FOX, it is not their jobs to report the news that the president wants to hear, the news simply follows the facts.

Shep was often an open critic of some of Trump's more egregious lies and misrepresentations.

Only ELWNJS are "real news" to you.

I would much rather have news that is honest and to the point minus the commentary. I do not need an interpreter of reality nor do I want to have someone tell me what the think or to "say what their viewers want to hear" smith was biased and catered to Liberals. I hope when Fox replaces him, it is with someone who can stick with investigated and vetted facts and can leave their opinions at the door.

"Biased and catered to liberals"? Why? Because he did not tow the Fox News line of complete allegiance to Trump? He voiced a different opinion than others on that network? He was true journalist; very, very hard to find these days. What we have with most of MSNBC and Fox News is news entertainment, a circus of bias. Spectacle. Sensational stories and opinions to excite h**e and fear and anger by its viewers, facts not included.

Very few reporters these days ever simply report the facts. Both sides are biased and incorporate their own opinions to one degree or another. It would be refreshing to see reporters leaving out the political bias of any side and simply report the news and leave the viewer to make their own conclusions.

Smith is a true CNN opinion maker, not a reporter. He thought because he is gay no one would disagree with him. He will end up with the rest of the f**e news types. They really don't know how really to
Get out and investigate stories and report them in an unbiased fashion. Their true colors have to come through sooner or later, so, one down, three to go. Haha

You are absolutely correct. I had come to actually getting sick to my stomach just hearing Shepard Smith's voice. I finally had to turn the channel to avoid getting sick. As a thinking adult, please just give me the facts, and I will come up with my own conclusion.
