Shep Smith Leaving Fox – IOTW Report

Shep Smith Leaving Fox

THR: The anchor has been one of the crown jewels of the network’s news division.

In a shocking turn of events that stunned the media industry, Fox News anchor Shepard Smith announced his departure from the network after more than 23 years Friday afternoon.

As chief news anchor and managing editor of breaking news, Smith is one of the faces of the network’s news division and one of its most important journalistic assets. The decision was Smith’s, Fox News said.

“Recently I asked the company to allow me to leave Fox News and begin a new chapter,” Smith said. “After requesting that I stay, they graciously obliged. The opportunities afforded this guy from small town Mississippi have been many. It’s been an honor and a privilege to report the news each day to our loyal audience in context and with perspective, without fear or favor. I’ve worked with the most talented, dedicated and focused professionals I know and I’m proud to have anchored their work each day — I will deeply miss them.” more here

    Can you imagine being his replacement and having to explain why you are replacing ALL the furnishings in his office and sterilizing the walls, floors, etc.?
    And the microphone? Just chuck it…

  3. Y e a r s ago when I had cable during the GWB era, I’d watch that guy occasionally – and cringe every time. It got to the point I couldn’t stand seeing his egotistical face and listening to his condescending voice so I’d turn the channel when he came on.
