Sorry as I watch this I picture off frame a few M-16's pointed at his head! This is bull#! Rupert must be worried he lost a few billion today in the stock market and Shepard was willing to sell out. Just my opinion.

What kind of anti-doom porn is this. The guy saying this does throw in a lot of protection, like saying there is nothing that Fox knows of that is a threat. Well, there is room for interpretation there, they are not saying there is no threat, only that they do not know of a threat. I guess the guy and the station do not want to put themselves on the spot and loose their pants if one comes along.

Most networks do that, they will state that there is nothing they know of, or no reliable evidence to cover their butts. I wonder how many browny points they made with that speech.

Oh well .....

EBOLA CAMPS? FOX ANALYST CALLS FOR QUARANTINE CAMPS IN EVERY CITY


Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.

Fox News host proposes Ebola quarantine 'centers' in every US city
www.youtube.com...

Calm, clear and very cogent points.

Get a flu shot...common sense.

No spread of ebola...
False statement?
Arguably not but most people will buy it and remain calm.

The biggest problem is that we've still got at least 3 planeloads of exposed passengers still in a incubation time frame and at least 70 health care workers who are still in the incubation phase that are circulating in public.

He flat out lied that the 2nd woman from Dallas wasn't showing signs of infection when she flew because she had fever before she flew and called the CDC about it. The CDC told her it was ok to fly even though she had a fever.

The main reason people are panicky is that we've watched our government do NOTHING about this for weeks except to lie and prevaricate.
Then they blamed the people who had to handle the ebola patient without proper protection.
They still refuse to limit flights from ebola ridden areas.
I'll expect them to limit flights from Dallas before they limit flights from Liberia.
When the powers that be exhibit such incompetence over such a serious matter it isn't easy to just smile and buy it.

Shepard Smith did a good job in that segment.
Very convincing.

I don't believe him at all.

When the mainstream media tells me to believe something , you can rest assured the opposite is true. oh and what happens when a prostitute gets infected can she pass it to her johns for 3 weeks?

Nice to see you come out from under the rocks then,............. why you think Chris Mathews and PMSNBC is better?

just saw this; i am not a fan of fox news, but this was a good piece; i've always liked shep.

O'Reilly, Kelly, Greta, and Hannity of Fox News, are all screaming at the top of the lungs to ban flights from the affected areas. Telling all of us to contact our political representatives and demand that flights from those areas with ebola in Africa be immediately stopped.

Smith has been parroting the same happy lala land crap for days now. I don't know who is holding a gun to his head, or if he actually believes the totally irresponsible pablum flowing out of his mouth.

Not bad for Fox. But actually, I could make a pretty good argument as to how this could very well be part of an overall agenda. But naw.

Whenever there is a crisis be it a crashed plane or conflicts overseas the stock market tanks. Because of the ebola scare the market is the worst its been all year. Normally the news loves to fuel the fear and doom but I bet that the recent stocks have started to eat into the corporate sponsors holdings and they have given orders to knock it off.

I lost a crapload in the last few months just imagine the losses old Rupert is feeling. Ups and downs can be expected even cashed in upon but when it goes down and stays down then it takes a bite out of the big wigs. Especially considering the new year isn't too far off so any stocks they dumped and liquidated are now cash holdings and can be taxed end of year.

They want the fear to subside so the market can recover.

*sigh*
While as mentioned, there's the Political side tied in with the hype, he's counter acting it supporting "his side" by pointing out the Democratic leaning news topics on Ebola "hysteria". He went there: "Best advice, get a flu shot." Well, what are we waiting for?! Sarcasm aside. The second woman had a fever, even called the CDC about it asking if it was okay to fly! Did you miss that while combing reports, Shepard Smith, really???? Guess it's possible that the indication of what was not released yet, however it is vital to what he's claiming in the video, as an update.

Hope he likes crow sanwh8ch.

Yup. Just about sums it up for me.

Shepard smith is the voice of reason in that asylum

You aren't going to find out any truth about Ebola from any MSM outlet. All that stuff is scripted...just different audiences.

Would you like to suggest a MSM network that isn't completely insane? Exactly.

Just because you believe in something does not mean that it is true. People believe in interpretations others give of scientific evidence a lot yet the evidence is misapplied some times or irrelevant to the situation. This seems to be the case. The people researching Ebola say that it is harder to spread than the flu, they do not say that you definitely will not catch the virus if you do not touch the person.

I watched Obama's speech on TV last night and he was saying that the virus cannot be airborn. The definition of airborn is the issue, the virus needs moisture to be transmitted. A virus cell is extremely small and it can latch onto the mist coming out of our breath. Now, it will die in a few feet so being five feet away probably lessens the transmission of the disease. There are circumstances where this does not apply, but they are rare in the case of Ebola.

I am not going to be paranoid about this disease. Half of us have immune systems that will fight this thing. We will not show signs of sickness from this disease much, maybe just a slight flu like symptom and the virus will not be transmitted easily by these people from what I understand. Once you get the disease, you will have immunity for many years.

I hate getting sick from any disease. Ebola is just another one that will piss me off if I catch it. I'm not going to heighten my risk factors though. I will try to lessen my exposure to all diseases. I get autoimmune issues, I am learning what foods increase this activities through research and evaluation and testing. So getting sick sucks no matter what it is, I will take normal precautions against catching this. Even though the flu only gets me sick for a day or two and usually isn't severe like my wife gets, I still do not like getting it. She is a little jealous that she gets the flu shot and gets the flu every year while I rarely get viruses that last long. I have to make the hot totties and chicken soup so the medicine maker can't afford to be sick. When a virus got my daughter and her family and my other daughter who is working in Connecticut, I had to make four batches of chicken soup in one week. That was a little over a week ago. My daughter made a trip home from Connecticut for the soup. Pretty hard to make chicken soup when you live in a motel room.

I used to like Shep, but he seems to have gotten worse about just everything. I think he's overdosing on mascara. I mean, really, no man's eyelashes are that dark and thick on camera! (And yes, I think he's lying as well.)
