CNBC cancels ‘The News with Shepard Smith’ to refocus on business news
CNBC ^ | 03-NOV-2022 | Alex Sherman

NBCUniversal’s CNBC has canceled “The News with Shepard Smith,” its primetime general news show, to refocus on business and market coverage.

The network announced the news Thursday in an e-mail to CNBC employees. Smith will be leaving the network later this month, according to a person familiar with the matter. CNBC will replace Smith’s primetime show with markets coverage until a new live show focusing on business news launches in 2023.

“After spending time with many of you and closely reviewing the various aspects of our business, I believe we must prioritize and focus on our core strengths of business news and personal finance,” CNBC President KC Sullivan said in an e-mail to CNBC employees. “As a result of this strategic alignment to our core business, we will need to shift some of our priorities and resources and make some difficult decisions.”

Liberals would never accept anyone who worked for Fox News, no matter how liberal they are.

Yep. Shep thought he could slide over to one of the MSM stations after being on Fox but must not have realized that working at Fox is permanent scarlet letter.

Hopefully his eyeliner won’t smear too badly when he goes home tonight and has a good cry over this.

Would NBC-Universal transfer Shep to MSNBC or being a G white male does not earn him enough Intersectional points to work there.
