Shepard Smith, whose newscast on Fox News Channel seemed increasingly an outlier on a network dominated by supporters of President Trump, says he is leaving the network.
His last broadcast was Friday.
Smith has worked at Fox News Channel since the network started in 1996.
Smith says in a statement that he asked the company to let him leave. He gave no reason for the seemingly sudden decision.
