‘Lie after lie after lie’: Fox News’ Shepard Smith has a Cronkite moment on Russia
The Washington Compost ^ | 7/14/2017 | Aaron Blake

Between its “Fox and Friends” morning show and Sean Hannity at night, Fox News has become a haven for those who think this whole Russia thing is nonsense. On Friday morning, Steve Doocy even declared that “the Russia story is starting to fall apart.”

But on Friday afternoon, a Fox host went off on the Trump administration's handling of Russia in a way we've rarely seen.

Shepard Smith is no stranger to challenging the administration and occasionally launching into personal editorials — including one about refugees back in 2015. But on Friday afternoon, he took it a step further, repeatedly accusing the administration of lying, deception and a coverup.

After reporting that there appeared to be more people in that meeting with Russian lawyer than previously acknowledged, Smith had either a Howard Beale or a Walter Cronkite moment, depending on your perspective, and he lit into the White House.

My theory is that Shep has some scandalous information on somebody high up in the food chain at Fox, or he'd be running towels in a gay bath house instead of making megabucks on TV.

He's a really creepy little piece of sh*t.

Imagine how shocked we were to learn that ol’ Shep was gay. Why, I was... oh, never mind. His husband needs to have a talk with him about maintaining his decorum.

"I’m surprised Shep hasn’t been offered the job on the new tv series Star Trek."

They can't. He has a permanent assignment as the "Star Wars" bartender.

I know why his eyes pop out the sides of his head. He drove the wrong way in a way way tunnel.

There is nothing gay about Shep. He is one miserable human being just like all the other homos I have ever known. The queers commandeered the word gay and polluted it so it no longer has any meaningful accurate use. It has become a gross misnomer. The inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah were so miserable in the site of God That He erased them.

don't get your news from homosexuals.

Some of Derbyshire's 'Talk' could be applied to homosexuals as well.

I caught a couple of minutes of that. He was dripping venom in the manner of a CNN-MSNBC commentator. Which invalidates what would be a valid question if posed as a question rather than as an assault.

My brother in law is gay.

And your description of him indicates what I have said all along: There's nothing GAY about it.

My youngest brother was homosexual, and died in San Francisco at 41 years of age of an unspecified illness. I never knew until after his death; he gave no indications of his illness when he was here.

That is a very uplifting story. I respect good people and hold no preconceptions or prejudices about sexual orientation. I have met gay conservatives and as you say, they are as they are but anyone who conducts himself or herself with dignity and respect for others is easy for me to respect.
