Cable World, Nov 27, 2000
It's not just politicians fighting in Florida.
Fox News Channel anchor Shepard Smith, one of the swarm of reporters covering the recount battle, hit a local cable news reporter with a car in a dispute over a parking spot, according to news reports.
Smith, who anchors FNC's 7 p.m. Fox Report, was trying to park his car in a space amid the satellite trucks ringing the state capitol Nov. 17 when Maureen Walsh, a freelancer working for Bay News 9, said she was saving the spot for her colleagues.
Smith cursed at her and hit her with the car, a white Mazda Millenia, she told police, according to the St. Petersburg Times. Walsh was released from a local hospital with bruises on her knees and legs.
