Last Week, I was at my busiest with at school and at home, but it's going get more busy this week when I have to deal with the schedule that I have in front of me. It has been a busy weekend for the WWE which is in the middle of its 2019 Draft and here is what we know so far from Night One on SmackDown. Heading to RAW are Becky Lynch, The O.C., Drew McIntyre, Randy Orton, Ricochet, Bobby Lashley, Alexa Bliss, Kevin Owens, Natalya, The Viking Raiders, Nikki Cross, and The Street Profits from NXT. Coming to SmackDown however are Roman Reigns, "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt, Sasha Banks, Braun Strowman, Lacey Evans, The Revival, Lucha House Party, and Heavy Machinery. Who knows who's gonna get drafted tomorrow night on Raw as the second half of the Draft will be a wild one. The 7-Day Round-Up this week is full of wild topics from start to finish, but viewers can see for themselves right this moment.

We are in the midst of the next round of the MLB Postseason with two Championship Series that are must-see. The Washington Nationals and St. Louis Cardinals pulled of shocking victories last week to make to in the NLCS which has been going great for one of these teams. Plus, the New York Yankees have been waiting for days to see who they will face in the ALCS and much to everyone's surprise, it's the Houston Astros which means a rematch from two years ago. Only this time the script may have been flipped in favor of the Yanks because they did something they couldn't to before in Houston. For more on everything that has gone on this weekend in sports, prepare yourself for a new Max Sports rundown.

Our Main Story this week is about FOX News, the only place where the President goes to listen to the news and is not being chastised for his actions in power. While we're not going to talk about what Fox News as a whole is up to, I want to take this time to discuss some shocking news from last Friday on FOX News Channel and it looks like they're going to new a new anchor. Veteran journalist Shepard Smith announced his resignation from the news organization after 23 years of covering breaking news topics and of being with the network since its debut in 1996. Smith first hosted The Fox Report from 1999 to 2013, he was also the host of Studio B which started in 2002 and was the renamed Shepard Smith Reporting in 2013. For his entire career on Fox News Channel, Smith was one of the network's senior correspondents, managing editor, and chief news anchors and has now abruptly announced that he's leaving having realized that his journey in the news industry has reached a crossroad. On his last show last Friday, he stated that he and his colleagues had "endeavored to deliver news reports to you [the viewers], while speaking truth to power without fear or favor, in context and with perspective." Fox News said in a press releases after Smith's announcement that "a series of rotating anchors will host the 3PM/ET time slot [on FNC] until a new dayside (or daytime) news program is announced. So while Fox News viewers wait to see who takes over for Shepard Smith in the near future, here's a special edition of #TwitterTrend showcasing the bombshell that has rocked the news industry.
JUST IN | Veteran Fox News anchor Shepard Smith has left the conservative media outlet he joined 23 years ago.
Friday’s “Shepard Smith Reporting” was his last broadcast, per a statement from Fox News Media president Jay Wallace. @ShepNewsTeam https://t.co/rQ6CQL6QYu?amp=1
Shepard Smith, longtime Fox News chief anchor and at times one of the lone voices of fact-checking and objectivity at the network, announced on Friday he is leaving Fox News

@ShepNewsTeam is leaving Fox News. I am feeling the same celebratory joy as when a Handmaid is able to escape Gilead and live in freedom.

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.

Shepard Smith’s farewell message on Fox News: “Even in our currently polarized nation, it’s my hope that the facts will win the day, that the truth will always matter, and that journalism and journalists will thrive.”
James Fallows @JamesFallows
Shepard Smith is the one person who has maintained his dignity, reputation, and standards while working for Fox News. Admiration to him
Chris Wallace rising #2
Q: Has *anyone* maintained dignity, reputation, etc while working for Fox’s counterpart, the Trump admin? I think: No
Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom
The facts. The truth. A free press. The things that should matter. Shep is a class act. Fox News is worse off. Godspeed @ShepNewsTeam
