Fox News Viewers Melt Down After Shep Smith Blows Up Latest Hillary Conspiracy Theory
Fox News anchor Shepard Smith was blasted by some of his network’s loudest viewers for fact-checking Republican talking points about Uranium One, which defenders of
President Donald Trump have used to allege that it was actually Hillary Clinton who colluded with Russia.
“What are the facts? What is Uranium One?” Smith questioned.
Smith explained that Trump’s campaign line on Uranium One is “inaccurate in a number of ways.”
“First, the Clinton State Department had no power to veto or approve that transaction. It could do neither,” Smith noted.
“The accusation is predicated on the charge that Secretary Clinton approved the sale. She did not,” Smith concluded.
Explaining the facts was seen as a betrayal by Fox News viewers, who seemed to prefer the network parrot White House talking points absent journalistic examination.
Here is a sampling of some Fox News viewers’ reaction to Shepard Smith’s reporting.
I normally don't tune into Shep's hour on FOX, can't stand his bias, but today while surfing channels he caught my interest...in 3 mts he argued Hillary's defense, how she had nothing to do with Uranium One and how Trump had lied about it. HE HAS TO GO!!!

Hannity, Shepard Smith is CNN on Fox. I just listened to him justify the Clintons having no power or say in Uranium One. Smith is a joke! We are not stupid. Now Fox News thinks we are! 145 Million and Smith exonerates them on Fox. What CRAP!

I hate #ShepardSmith.

I hate his face, the sound of his voice, his seething hatred for all things that pertain to our President, his lack of objectivity
Those 9 that approved uranium deal were all Obama Clinton lackies. Just like Shepard Smith!
