Well he works on fox "news" so im gonna guess he belongs to the republican party but its hard to tell cuz i like him a lot if fox continues to call themselves fair and balanced then they better keep shep Shepard Smith, a Fox News anchor, has left very little evidence as to any political party affiliation in his journalistic career. According to the news watchdog website "News Hounds," on a 2007 episode with conservative commentator Laura Ingraham as a guest Shepard was quoted as saying: "But we're conservative and on the Republican side" referring to the two of them. Some consider this as evidence of Shepard Smith being a Republican.
