Fox News's Shep Smith: 'Every Vote Against The Public Option Is A Vote For The Insurance Companies'

[one...two...tree 2,762]

I like Shep Smith. But I do have to find it funny that now that this is something he said that supports the public option, on "evil" Fox News, it gets posted as a "Go Shep Smith!" thing. Maybe they aren't always as evil as people assume. I know they are right wing compared to most of the news channels but that doesn't mean everything they say is wrong. And I'm just blah blah blahing because no one will listen anyway.

I'm listening.

I didn't post this video to celebrate Fox News or to suggest Shepard Smith is a cool guy because he's in support of the public option. I posted the video because many Fox News viewers are health care reform opponents who dismiss or throw everyone under the bus who doesn't tow the Far Right opposition to a public option. I actually think Shepard Smith is overstepping his bounds as anchorman. He can argue the pros and cons of the issue, but he injecting his own point of view into the interview. That's standard practice on Fox News - more commentary than news.

If they ain't towing the line for Obama then they are "Right Wing" plain and simple. Thats how a liberal mind works.

If you'd pay attention, you would notice that the "liberals" ain't towing Obama's line on a number of issues. He's being criticized from that end quite a bit. But you wouldn't know that.

There is a reason that he is the highest paid news anchor on the Fox News Channel (see your signature). I don't think they'll be getting rid of him anytime soon...

Yeah - cause he's got those baby blue OMG eyes.

According to millions of squealing young girls across America, the Jonas Brothers are hawt...but I'd never use that as a litmus test for quality.

Well said.

Anyone who votes against a public option is anti-Americans.
