Here is that double standard again. Who the H*LL is the crazy leftie!!!!
Shep Smith attacks another journalist
Fox News Channel anchor Shepard Smith will go unpunished for what police say was aggravated assault with a motor vehicle.
On Friday, Nov. 17, during the Florida presidential election fiasco, Smith was arrested for allegedly driving his car into another reporter who was standing in a parking space she attempted to save for a friend.
The victim, freelance journalist Maureen Walsh of Tallahassee, was hospitalized and released later the same day with bruises on her knees and legs. According to Sgt. Edwin Maxwell, Walsh was standing across the street from the state capitol when Smith drove up and "shouted some profanities at her and basically just struck her, striking her at the knees, which threw her up on the car," he told the St. Petersburg Times.
Smith, who used to be a reporter for 20th Century Television's "A Current Affair," was arrested and charged with aggravated battery with a motor vehicle.
The felony charge came with a $10,000 bail price tag, which Smith produced so he could return to work.
The story, while reported briefly by local publications and wire reports, quickly fell off the media's radar.

This case is 9 years old, and was dismissed. I assume you only dredged it up because he had the audacity to talk about the threatening emails he receives from the radical right wing lunatic fringe?
Since he worked for FOX, which network do you assume led the "coverup"?
Here's another fun trip down FOX Anchor Memory lane:

On the contrary, Smith was charged with a felony the day of the offense. The charge was later downgraded to a misdemeanor – not an uncommon practice, according to the state attorney's office – and the anchor pleaded not guilty.

The charges were dropped not dismissed
He was not convicted of or tried for the crime. The charges were, indeed, dismissed, not dropped, not that the choice of words makes any difference legally.
It does not matter it was only 9 yrs ago! He struck this woman on purpose!
Why haven't you posted this previously, as a loyal FOX news viewer? Why do you suddenly feel the need to protect us and inform the world about him? I'll bet you didn't care when he was slamming Sen. Dodd and Rep. Barney Frank, comparing Rep. Frank to Joe McCarthy?
His behavior is perfectly fine as long as he is tossing out red meat to gin up the Republican base?
