Shep Smith: WikiLeaks Releases ‘The Only Straight Answers We Get Any More’

video
» 21 comments

Shepard Smith is sick of the government lying to us. “The list is so long, we don’t have room for it on the screen any more!” he exclaimed today during Studio B. Smith was covering the latest WikiLeaks release in the Washington Post that details the United States’ secret backing of Syrian opposition forces and he made it abundantly clear just who he thought was fighting the good fight. “Man, we’ve learned a lot from the WikiLeaks people, haven’t we?” Smith asked with a smile.

After his guest, former CIA officer Michael Baker, offhandedly remarked that the Post had made itself “the arbitrer of what’s good for the public to know,” Smith jumped in excitedly:

“Wait a minute. You get information that the government’s lying to you again, one more lie from the government! I wish they would publish all of it! Every lie they tell ought to be laid bare!”

For more on Smith’s opinions on WikiLeaks, check out a segment he did with our own Colby Hall last December about whether or not Julian Assange is a hero or a villain.

    Obama: Fox News is ‘destructive’ to America

    Al-Jazeera has fans in Obama W.H.

    It’s amazing how long it takes some people to get caught up. Al Jazeera does some news better than U.S. media outlets. Fox does news for conservatives and they pledge allegiance to Rupert. Maybe they never really cut the cord with jolly old England.

    WTF?

  • TeaPartyPatriot

    Suggestion for Rupert Murdock: Why limit Shep Smith’s Fox News program to just cable? Millions of American do not have access to the outrageous, monopoly priced cable, and these poor schlubs have to get their tv news over the air from the lamestream socialist media. Give these people an alternative to that leftist-bs by cutting down the 1 hour Fox News cable program to 30 minutes and having each and every Fox affiliate broadcast it at the same time the 30-minute lamestream leftist propaganda broadcasts occur. This way, not only does the Fox Network win millions and millions of additional viewers, but these millions of Americans finally get to see what The TRUTH, The FACTS and REALITY are like – and I’ll bet they’ll become additional loyal fans of Fox. It’s a real WIN-WIN. (And, as an added bonus, the executives running the lamestream “news” programs get to crap their pants every day that the Fox broadcast beats them in the ratings !)

    So you’re okay with having a President who hates a patriotic American news entity, who loves a pro-Muslim, anti-Israeli, anti-American news entity?

    Please look at the way you just described FoxNews.

    Now go look up propaganda in the dictionary.

    Good on ya, Shep! What are you doing at Faux?

  • Dem4Ever

    Shep is the proof that Fox is fare and balanced.

    Shep’s saying WikiLeaks is more honest than the current Marxist-Leninist clowns in the White House?

    Good job Shep!-you go FOX!

    Yes, I know having a President who is worldly scares the bejezzus out of our provincial republicans, but it is nice to have a leader who is considered urbane and knowledge. You know, a refreshing change from the village idiot we had previously. But if the village idiot is your kind of leader, well, it looks like your party is gonna give you the opportunity to vote for another one.

    And that patriotic American news entity is a British owned conservative mouthpiece. Conservatives like to wave the flag, and start wars, but they aren’t much on sending their kids to fight them, or trying to avoid them all together. “War is good for business and war IS good business…”

    Alot of the wiki leaks are pre- obama. The gov has always had secrets, for good or bad.
