Everyone has known about this for years, but I find it hard to believe Ailes never made a disparaging remark

 

[ZackieChan]

Yea the OP states that Ailes recommended against it but I can't find anything in the article backing that up.

In fact, he states exactly the opposite in a section that OP himself bolded. What gives?

 

[WeAreStarStuff]

I mean, I know my people when I see them. The gay face is strong with this one.

This post will not go well for you.

 

[Jawbreaker]

It's not like another network wouldn't scoop him up immediately if Fox were to be idiots about this.Chances are they all knew anyway.

I meant in regards to their viewership.

 

[Leona Lewis]

I had some doubts about Steve Kornacki before since I love Rachel Maddow so so much (my 'waifu' if you allow me to say so...) and I got bummed every time I see him filling in, but he's actually improved a lot.

AC360 is the best hands down.

I love Rachel, but that thing that both she and Lawrence O'Donnell do where they open the show with some rambling, apparent non sequitur and, after about 10 minutes of build-up, reveal its connection to the main story is so, so incredibly annoying.

This post will not go well for you.

I don't know about you, but I subscribe to the perennial dictum, "The brows do not lie."

 

[Hazmat]

Good for him, I always liked Shep Smith.

I respectfully disagree on that. I think it is a strength of Rachel's show. Laying the groundwork and inform viewers with background information. I always learn a lot during these segments.

Could be cos we don't have this type of program in my country.

I love to rewatch from time to time the ones related to white supremacy, posse comitatus, etc.

Back to topic, I didn't think Shep would be gay until today's news. His face and manners are quite... 'lack of characteristic' so to speak.
Glad he finally has the opportunity to express his true self.

 

[daemonic]

This post will not go well for you.

There's a kernel of truth to what he's saying - though his wording could have been better. Of course it's still a generalization at best. It has to do with facial expressions mostly:

This.

He and Megyn Kelly are the only reasonable/stomach-able parts of that station.

Spoiler

opinion on Megyn Kelly heavily influenced by her legs

I didn't know Donald Trump had a gaf account.

 

[rpmurphy]

Congrats to Shep. He's always been the diamond in the sand for Fox News.

 

[Ovid]

Least shocking news ever.

Yeah, his sexual preference was known for many years.

As someone mentioned, I thought that he already announced it. I guess not.

How else would we find each other before the invention of the internet?

 

[RPGCrazied]

I like him, he is like the only sane person at Fox News. Why is he still there is beyond me. Go to MSNBC or something.

Pheromones? You know, the gay smell.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

His love for True Blood is what made me like him.

[psynergylover]

it was alreadly known, he just covered it up using with some amazing pimp game.

He says right in the OP, he's always felt comfortable there. If you've got co-workers you like working with and a boss who mentors and respects you, why jump ship?

 

[SomedayTheFire]

Good for him.

 

[Sanjuro]

I mean, I know my people when I see them. The gay face is strong with this one.

 

[Dany]

Good for him.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

For some reason I had assumed he already had.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Lol "gay face"? Please do tell how one can learn to discern "gay face"

 

[Zelias]

Good for him.

 

[LincolnSixEcho]

Great for him.
What kind of betrayal is he referring too? I'm a bit out of the loop with Roger Ailes.

 

[gappvembe]

I always thought he looked like David Bowie.

 

[Linkura]

Finally. Happy for him. He's the ONLY decent person Fox News has.

 

[Dany]

Lol "gay face"? Please do tell how one can learn to discern "gay face"

The cheek bones!

 

[riotous]

“I trusted him with my career and with ― I trusted him and trusts were betrayed. People outside this company can’t know [how painful that betrayal was]. This place has its enemies, but inside, it was very personal, and very scarring and horrifying.”

What does this refer to?

 

[The Kree]

I like that the storm path points toward his crotch.

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

Good on him. Only good thing at Fox News.

https://youtu.be/QzfQuIgpW6o

At least he has a semblance of a soul.

 

[anaron]

Yeah, I thought this had happened already. Huh.

Same. lol

 

[Tom Nook]

Will he still be employed at Fox News?

 

[Bladenic]

Good for him. He and Julie Banderas are two people that I find hard to believe work at Fox News for the most part.

 

[mackattk]

You had a good run Shepard. Wouldn't be surprised if he get canned for not aligning with Fox News' image and direction.

 

[The Kree]

Will he still be employed at Fox News?

Everyone knew already. He'll be fine.

 

[rokkerkory]

Will he still be employed at Fox News?

You had a good run Shepard. Wouldn't be surprised if he get canned for not aligning with Fox News' image and direction.

Hope he isnt canned for this

 

[Volimar]

I like that the storm path points toward his crotch.

I think it's coming out of his crotch.

 

[GitarooMan]

What does this refer to?

I assume the sexual harassment that got Ailes fired

 

[riotous]

I assume the sexual harassment that got Ailes fired

Yeah that makes sense; thought maybe he felt betrayed by the firing itself.

The past tense on "was like a father to me" makes sense with your explanation.

 

[Jawbreaker]

Man, those comments are cancerous. I should have known they would be YouTube level. :lol

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Despite the occasional misstep, Shep is the best in the business when it comes to breaking news.

Couldn't stand him growing up when he was on WSVN with Dick Snatchez..he somehow just got to be funny on FIX News. Like a constant troll..

 

[Mariolee]

I actually had no suspicion. Good on him!

 

[Lights and Waves]

gayface

Gayface is the look that gay men have that enables other gay men to quickly identify them as "family" no matter what they're doing, wearing or saying. Gayface is identifiable in photos. Gayface cannot be hidden by attempts to butch it up. Straight men with gayface are not really straight.

When I saw his picture in the paper, I immediately knew that girl on his arm was a beard because he totally has gayface.

Hmmmmm Do we want him though? Can anyone vouch if hes sane or one of the Log Cabin crazies? Maybe he can have a Power

Hour with Thomas Roberts on MSNBC if he moves over.........

The J.Lo Blowjob guy?

That recovery. Smooth as ice.

 

[Iksenpets]

Hope he isnt canned for this

Shep's been an open secret for years. Like, you can see photos of him taking boyfriends out on lavish dates in clear public view. This is nothing new to them, so I doubt there's any risk of him getting in trouble.
