Shepard Smith's 2003 Fox Report was ranked third among the top five cable news shows in the United States, and Smith came in second, behind Dan Rather and Peter Jennings as the most reliable news anchor on both network and cable news. Smith signed a three-year deal for $7–$8 million per year on November 19, 2007. On October 26, 2010, he renewed his Fox contract for another three years.

In November 2017, Smith enraged some Fox News viewers by arguing that the Obama administration interfered corruptly in a contract that allowed a Russian firm to purchase Uranium One, a Canadian company with uranium mining interests in the United States, in exchange for contributions to the Clinton Foundation.
