Shepard Smith profile…
The Atlanta Journal Constitution’s Jill Vejnoska has an article on FNC’s Shepard Smith…
Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity long have been the big names at cable news’ No. 1 network, but increasingly, Smith is the big-gun anchor viewers expect to see when a big story breaks.
“If you’re talking about a major story, major news — certainly Shep is the face of Fox News,” says Bill Shine, the network’s senior vice president of programming. “He has that rare combination of being very smart and also very talented. You can put him out there, and if the prompter goes down, you’re not going to be in trouble. If news breaks unexpectedly, you’re not going to be in trouble.”
Smith is from just a regular ol’ family, just like mine. No wonder I relate to him so much more than his contemporaries.
