By Brian 

Howard Kurtz: Fox Report anchor Shep Smith “presides over a breathless, mile-a-minute, graphics-laden, video-saturated program that careens from war to missing women to what Smith calls ‘goofy things.'” As Smith says: “It won’t kill us to give 20 seconds of cute dogs.” Kurtz quotes SVP John Moody on the subject of the G Block: “I often suggest we might want to preempt that for news. It’s all about things like Angelina Jolie’s tattoo.”
