“Clueless”

“I don’t want Pete fucking Hegseth taking my time slot.”

When Shep Smith was weighing whether or not to sign a new contract in early 2018, his potential replacement was a big factor.

Hegseth wasn’t literally up for the job, but Shep actively imagined all the things Suzanne Scott could do to take the teeth out of the 3 p.m. hour. Scott said she wanted him to stay, and he believed the network would be worse off without him. That’s why he committed to three more years. “I wonder,” he told Time magazine, “if I stopped delivering the facts, what would go in its place in this place that is most watched, most listened, most viewed, most trusted? I don’t know.” But he had his suspicions, and those were scary enough to convince him to sign on the dotted line. Fifteen million a year helped ease his concerns too.
