He is so refreshing compared to Hannity and Colmes or O'Reilly. He has this real knack for pushing news out with a bit of humor, too. I like him and Keith Olbermann a lot for news. I also enjoy Greta's show, but she's a liberal so of course I would.

14. the poster obviously is aware of fox's leanings
sheppie isn't my style so i watch tweety and sometimes <gasp> o'reilly. I guess some of us are confident enough in our philosophies that we can listen to people with whom we do not agree just as we might read a book which offers differing views without becoming an automaton. i think it's cultish to confine yourself to only left leaning info.

If I were you, I'd be embarassed as all sin to be as rude and judgemental as your post suggests.

4. you're kinda in love with Shep, aren't ya?
There's that other thread you started in the DU Lounge re: Shep's J-Lo gaffe.

Keep in mind that this is the same Sheppard Smith who assaulted a fellow (female) reporter in order to get a better spot to cover a story. The guy's a scumbag in a douchebag's clothing.

6. fox news
His show I think is one of the problems with the media today. Which is a mixture of the news with gossip and entertainment. What ever happened to just getting the news and nothing else? Are our attention spans so short that if we dont see a story about J.Lo and Ben Affleck then we wont stay tuned for Iraq coverage?
A study showed and I swear there recently was one,, i'll have to find the source later that people who watch fox news are most likely to be the most misinformed about current events. (this doesnt mean that im refering to you).

7. Shep is a Grade-A-Repuke-Felon
(repost from another thread on Shep-the-Brownshirt-Smith)

Puh-leeze people. Shep Smith is a goddamn brownshirt and a half. His *public* demeanor is one of the ways Faux entices children into Rethuglicanism.

Anyhow, get a load of Shepard Smith.

http://www.anycities.com/andyhifi/news/shepardsmith.htm
http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=23531

Just one quote, from WND (heh JESUS, of all places):

"Smith was arrested for driving his car into another reporter who was standing in a parking space she attempted to save for a friend."

Yeah, Shep Smith is a real, grade A, patriot-fucking hero.

10. Let me get this straight.
Greta is liberal.
Shepard is good.

What's next?
Refrigerators are meant to keep things hot and fireman are sent out to prevent things from getting cold?

13. Disappointing
Shepard Smith seems to suffer from the malady of all Faux News anchors, severe I-love-me-itis. But hey, if you're into that, enjoy!
