Three Strikes - 3rd Time This Campaign Season NBC/WSJ Caught Promoting Agenda Polls
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 02/17/2016 | Sundance

Posted on 02/17/2016 4:57:15 PM PST by PJBankard

The team of NBC and Wall Street Journal (Rupert Murdoch owned) has struck again with their latest highly coordinated and heavily manufactured latest "Agenda Poll". We have previously revealed NBC/WSJ's prior two constructs.......

[SNIP]

Remember, an "agenda poll" is not created to show a statistical snapshot of the presidential race. An "agenda poll" has nothing to do with the support. Agenda Polls are manufactured to create media talking points, to create media narratives.

Agenda polling is about setting out to make a story, to sell a specific narrative, by using polling as the means to justify the story you are selling. Nothing more, and nothing less.

Pretty honest from a Cruz supporter...well done

Are you all Cruz or nothing?

Or will you vote Trump if he wins

You’re the third Cruz first supporter I asked

I’m a Cruz 2nd for the record

Tks

I think Rubio can come 2nd. Machine is behind him. Cruz may be distant 3rd.
For Jeb, machine failed in NH.

Iowa is very different state, one its caucus state, plus very socialist/very religious.

My goal is the defeat of the Uniparty.

Cruz does that best with conservatism.

Trump does that okay with populism.

I will vote for Cruz in the Primary.

I can vote for Trump in the General as necessary.

Cruz spent weeks and weeks and weeks in Iowa and traveled to all 99 counties. South Carolina is a considerably bigger state and he’s spent less time there. His GOTV will be solid but not like Iowa.

Do the research, nationally and it proved also so in Iowa, what I stated is accurate.

Rob...which of the five factors stated in the OP's thesis on NBS/Wall Street polling do you find invalid?

its our goal to tell the truth, not necessarily attract supporters. Those with itching ears hear only what they want to hear.

I’ll vote Trump in the general if it comes to that, but I’ll never back off from exposing the shallow inane absurd projectile bile from most Trumpanzees.

LOL - typical Alinsky reply.

Sad how you GOPers reject reality.

That may be, but Cruz isn’t the front-runner. The polls was created for an agenda to cause an uproar between the two most hated GOP candidates, Trump and Cruz. The media already knows that Trump and Cruz go after each other, what a better way to cause discontent amongst voters than to instigate.

Not commenting on that, was disputing her conjecture that Trump supporters are more highly educated than others.

That’s patently false.

Not only are you a liar, you are a goddamn no-good dirty low-down liar, and so are your children, and your children's children.

"Trump not only won the Granite State by a wide margin, according to exit polls, Trump won the votes of every education demographic, including those with college and post-graduate degrees".

CNN post NH reported Trump won in every demo including “college educated”.
BTW New Hampshire and Iowa have the same percentage college educated.

You’re just repeating the same old crap leftists use to demean an opponent.

I just picture Heidi's next email extortion: "Help us! Don't tell Ted, but we are losing in SC just like our SuperPac leader stated this morning, and we are losing on FreeRepublic due to our shithouse rat-crazy plants there ... Please send $100, or $500, or frankly, I run GoldSacksMan and really, if you can't spare $1,000 get bent."

WSJ called my cell phone last night. When I answered the automated voice asked for me by name and then said they were calling with questions regarding political candidates and the election. I hung up before the questions began.

Sorry, but even when Trump was leading in the polls in IA it was still a relatively close race within 5%. Cruz won IA by less than 4%. Trumps poll lead in NH was 15 and he won the state by 19.5. Depending on the poll, SC has Trump up 15+. You would have to have a massive poll shift in SC in the next two days for Trump to not win decisively.

Yup!

This was talked about on the evening news, as though Donald had taken a bullet and Cruz was gonna be nominated as the pope or something.

ALL THE POLLS (except this one) show Mr. Trump has a commanding lead.

NBC doesn’t seem to care, or worse yet NBC doesn’t even know that this has destroyed their credibility.
