FNC’s Shepard Smith ‘Felt the Need’ to Report from Jordan

By Brian Flood 

Fox News Channel’s Shepard Smith is in Jordan, less than 24 hours after ISIS released a video showing a Jordanian military pilot being burned alive. Smith and his team took the last flight out of JFK Airport last night and arrived in Jordan in time for an appearance on today’s “Happening Now.”

“Until now, there has been a divide on whether the fight against ISIS is Jordan’s to wage,” Smith told TVNewser. “Here in Amman, there is a feeling tonight that the people are united behind King Abdullah. We felt the need to be here for this moment. Many hope it may be pivotal.”

Smith will report from Jordan throughout the day and into primetime.
