This will be a time slot homecoming for Shep, who helmed the 7pm hour on Fox News until Roger Ailes demoted him in 2013 to make room for Megyn Kelly. No word on an exact launch date yet.
CNBC is giving Shep some big titles: "CNBC& #39;s Chief General News Anchor and Chief Breaking General News Anchor as well as Executive Editor of The News with Shepard Smith."
BTW, my forthcoming book HOAX has chapters full of fresh reporting about Shep& #39;s decision to walk away from Fox in the middle of a three-year contract... https://www.amazon.com/Hoax-Brian-Stelter/dp/1982142448/">https://www.amazon.com/Hoax-Bria...
Shep says CNBC boss Mark Hoffman "presented me with CNBC& #39;s vision for a fact-based, hour-long evening news program with the mission to cut through the static to deliver facts, in context and with perspective. I know I found a great home for my newscast." http://www.cnn.com/2020/07/08/media/shepard-smith-cnbc/index.html">https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/0...
