Anyway, two or three days into the search, I remember Shep hosting a block, I believe with Bridget Quinn and they took a call from a viewer that said something along the lines of "Can you guys cover some of the other news going on right now? This guy is nobody important and the nonstop 24/7 coverage of watching the ocean and the nonstop adulation is getting old." Shep tore the guy up and down, completely belittling him and giving him a "how dare you" type lecture on how JFK Jr was so important to America. I started avoiding him then... I rarely watch the 7pm block since he took it over and if I catch the 3pm slot, it's by complete accident. I don't need his brand of condescending elitism regarding people he disagrees with. If he wants to be hard news, then he needs to be hard news and keep the opinions to himself.
