As one of the main charms of Fox News’ Studio B With Shepard Smith is that anything can happen, and it usually does. For example, as Smith was tossing to commercial Wednesday afternoon, he took what seemed like a hard shot at former Arkansas Governor and Fox stablemate Mike Huckabee‘s “Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day,” invented to celebrate that restaurant chain’s opposition to marriage equality.

Delivering one of those banal date-related factoids that news shows throw out there every so often, Smith said “It’s National Badminton Day,” then added “forget National Day of Intolerance, let’s just stay with badminton.” Smith has previously express support for marriage equality.

I emailed fox complaining. Probably won’t amount to anything. However, I reminded them that if they want to alienate their Conservative Christian viewers and experience the same ratings as CNN and MSNBC go right ahead.

‘National Day Of Intolerance’

Shep...you think of that little ditty while you were filling up with gas? You know, the guys in the middle east who pump the stuff out of the ground and whack the heads off of homosexuals? You fill up with some “intolerance juice”?

Sorry but Shep Smith should be on MSNBC, NOT FOX! I can understand having different political differences on a Network but do NOT understand allowing such bias on FOX’s basic NEWS shows!

We have all the bias we need on other networks. Please don’t let obvious bias become the standard on FOX news. I’m not talking about the opinion shows, but the actual supposedly NEWS shows, Shep on the news is absolutely biased just like NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, and there you have it...

Are Shep Smith and Anderson Cooper going to the gay “kiss-in” on Friday? Inquiring minds want to know.

Maybe Shep and Andy can give Americans a live sodomy performance to really prove to the masses how prudish we all are. Are you “up” for it, gents?

Let me get this straight. A Christian has a personal conviction and opinion, but does not let it cause him to treat others negatively, so the Perverted Peoples attack his business and person, call in bomb threats and call him intolerant because he does not agree with them?

Apparently Perversity is what they mean by Diversity because its clearly one way.
