I have to wonder how Shepard Smith still finds himself employed at Fox News. Maybe he’s their diversity hire? Because he is just 100% against the general narrative of the network. This week, he took on Trump’s erroneous/untrue claims against Amazon, especially the claim that they in some way negatively impact the USPS. It’s become kind of his role on the network to buzzkill the editorials by…you know…giving out the facts. And he kind of famously rankles the feathers of the other personalities on Fox News because he calls them out without actually calling them out. It’s a sort of passive aggressive “Screw You” to the rest of the network, which gives him value. Maybe that’s why Fox keeps him around? To draw in those more left of center viewers who would otherwise avoid Fox News like the plague.
