Shepard Smith unexpectedly announces that he is leaving Fox News.
"Everybody makes mistakes,” Smith said on air at the time. “Instead ... the president blamed the media for his own inaccurate warning and then started to rewrite history on the matter.”“Why would the president of the United States do this?" Smith said."He decries fake news that isn’t, and disseminates fake news that is.”Smith drew a bright line between his news show and Fox's conservative talkers.
"Everybody's got a job to do. Hannity is trying to get conservatives elected. And he wants you to listen to him and believe what he believes," Smith told the online news outfit."And I'm disseminating facts. It's really apples and teaspoons. What we do is so different. He's an entertaining guy who has an audience that he serves, and I deliver the news."
And back in 2009, Smith took on Republican orthodoxy by forcefully saying American intelligence officers should not use torture in interrogating detainees."The Strategy Room.""We are America. We do not f---ing torture. We don't do it." The network and Smith announced in March of last year that they had agreed to a new multi-year deal — though specifics of the reported pact were not revealed.Dartunorro Clark is a political reporter for NBC News.
