    Is Fox News Trying to Make Shepherd Smith More Manly?

    Why are they broadcasting with him at the All-Star Game? Dude is one of the bigger high profiled fruits out there. It's very off-putting to see him in a sports setting because he's an idiot as well ... well maybe it should be normal seeing as they are letting Joe Buck & Tim McCarver in the building too.

    he is actually a little crazy, i have seen him make some weird mistakes. i can't remember what they were right now. joe buck is number one on my list of all time disliked commentators.

    I remember he said "blow job" by accident on the air. He laughed it off and apologised. probably on youtube somewhere.

    He yelled something to the effect of "we are America, we do not fuking torture" once before. It was kinda awkward.

    He can't read, which is uncomfortable to watch. probably why he didn't graduate college. He went somewhere in Mississippi--I mean how hard can that be to graduate from there.

    You obviously do not know ANYTHING about the news industry with this remark. Did you know Bob Costas did not graduate either.

    Shepherd always does sports assignments for Fox.....he's an Ole Miss Rebel alumn and a die had sports fan. I've seen him on the square in Oxford years ago drinking with the crowd....do to Earth guy. He use to frequent 'the gin' when he came home. Ahh good memories from that place before it burned to the ground last year

    Guess you think John Grisham is illiterate too since he also went to Ole Miss

    Ole Miss has a good Law School and medical school all thing considered.

    why does anyone care?

    everyone's an idiot or a loser to someone else. Putting people down makes some feel better about themselves. Its a normal human function generally brought on my jealousy. Just sayin'.

    Shepard Smith is one of the best pure reporters in all of news. Looking at all the news coverage on all of CNN, MSNBC, and Fox news, i would rate him 1a with Anderson Cooper being 1b.
    And I thought it was just a rumor the guy was gay, not like it matters. Shepard Smith seems like the type of person from his coverage that he would come out and champion the issue

    Shepard is the man! I once had a drink with him at the Ritz on Market St a few years ago for a wine tasting.
