'Partisanship as news coverage': Tucker Carlson hits back at Shepard Smith for scolding him

A war of words between two Fox News personalities escalated when Tucker Carlson hit back at Shepard Smith after the daytime host characterized Carlson’s handling of one of his guests as “repugnant.”

The feud began Tuesday when Carlson brought former U.S. Attorney Joe diGenova on his opinion show after Democrats announced they had begun an impeachment inquiry into President Trump. DiGenova ripped Fox News contributor Judge Andrew Napolitano, calling him “a fool” for saying during an interview with Smith that Trump had already admitted to committing a crime.

Smith on Wednesday expressed pointed disapproval that Carlson did not challenge diGenova over the statement, and said, “Attacking our colleague who is here to offer legal assessments on our air, in our work home, is repugnant.”

Shepard has a terrible show and turned partisan / anti-Trump after he came out of the closet. Napolitano turned partisan / anti-Trump after Trump did not nominate him for the SC. Both have a grudge against Trump and probably both are on their way to CNN or MSNBC like the others that left FOX. I say good riddance and sooner the better.

Shepard has really turned partisan / anti-Trump since he came out of the closet. His program sucks. He is probably on his way to CNN or MSNBCC like some of his previous friends that left FOX. Napolitano turned partisan / anti-Trump since Trump turned him down by Trump as a nominee for SC.

Shep Smith has become an arrogant, trump hating, left winged nut job. He should have stayed in the closet. He was a little more tolerable then. Tucker Carlson has a much better program than Shep.

7:04 PM, Juan is paid by FOX for his counter point. Shepherd is a never Trumper and has allowed his bias to leech into his program. Disappointed.
