Forward or backward?

Okay, I thought all the 6:30 (ET) national network newscasts were on the wane. So why is Fox considering doing a national evening newscast?

And what will that mean for all the Fox affiliates who have positioned their 5p-8pm blocks around alternatives to local and national news?

Unfortunately, Shepard Smith is the anchorman so far connected to the potential show. He's probably one of the biggest names recognized as being part of the Fox News brand. He was on the Fox network newsmagazine "The Pulse" or whatever it was. But he's such a f*cking prick.

So is this a step forward or backward? Is the network newscast past its prime or is this ignoring the conventional wisdom?
