Faux's Shepard Smith: 'They don’t allow us to see the heroes who died in Iraq.’

'They don’t allow us to see the heroes who died in Iraq.’

Fox News anchor Shepard Smith, covering yesterday’s flag-draped coffin procession for the Blue Angels pilot who died in a crash last weekend:

This is a scene we are not accustomed to see during war times. They don’t allow us to see the victims — uh, heroes who died for us in Iraq. We don’t get to see their caskets come back. It’s a wonderful honor to be able to pay tribute to this man in this way. Wouldn’t it be nice if we were able to do this with the hundreds upon hundreds who have died for us in Iraq?

Watch it at link, or not. ;) Whaddaya know, Faux noticed! Did any other corp. media whore take note?

1. Smith was changed by Katrina
Not a complete turnaround but every once in while he goes off book.

2. Doesn't Shepard Smith have a history of saying some un-Faux things at times?
One more of those momentary lapses of truth, and the next thing he may hear is, "...and traffic with Shepard Smith."
