Fox News anchor Shepard Smith says he’s too busy to watch his network’s opinion programming, which has sometimes been at odds with his news reporting.

“We serve different masters. We work for different reporting chains, we have different rules. They don’t really have rules on the opinion side. They can say whatever they want. If it’s their opinion. I don’t really watch a lot of opinion programming. I’m busy,” the anchor told Time magazine in an interview published Thursday.

Smith says he would never want to play a role in Fox News’ opinion programming because the debates have become too heated.

“Some of our opinion programming is there strictly to be entertaining,” he explained. “I get that. I don’t work there. I wouldn’t work there. I don’t want to sit around and yell at each other and talk about your philosophy and my philosophy. That sounds horrible to me.”

Smith said he would walk away from his job if he were asked to change his show because viewers didn’t like what they were hearing.

“If we start making changes, if ratings go down or viewers scream too much and we make changes to accommodate, we are in extreme dereliction of duty. I cannot do it. I will not do it. I’ll quit. I’ll stop doing it completely,” he said.

Smith also worries about the type of programming that would replace his show if he quit.

Fox News announced Thursday that it had extended Smith’s contract, but didn’t comment on how may years the contract was extended.

Smith doesn’t know if Trump, who is known to live tweet “Fox & Friends” in the morning, watches his 3 p.m. show, but he hopes the president is keeping himself busy in other ways.

“I hope not, I hope he’s busy,” he said.
