NBC News reporter Chuck Todd mocked this FReeper on Twitter tonight for my pointing out that the media would rather lose money than cater to conservative consumers of news. The conversation started over a comment by Slater reporter Dave Weigel on media bias in polls:
Do people actually think news networks would pay for unreliable polls with bad samples b/c they love Obama so much? Don't answer that.
I replied: News media has deliberately alienated conservatives, willfully losing money to further liberalism. Skewed polls just a part.
Weigel retweeted my comment with a slight modification to his 75,849 followers: MT @KristinnFR: Media has deliberately alienated conservatives, losing money to further liberalism. Skewed polls just a part.
Chuck Todd chimed with his comment that went to his 245,862 followers: that is some "logic"; so our corporate parents deliberately want us to lose money? N-V-T-S nuts nuts nuts (N-V-T-S is a Ron Carey reference from the Roman Empire section of Mel Brook's film History of the World Part One.)
I replied to Todd: Newsweek. Sold for a buck to keep it out of conservative hands.
Someone else asked for empiracle evidence. I told him: Proof is in market place. Conservative radio, internet, news empires built to meet demand eschewed by MSM.
It is clear that G.E. and NBC management believe that their propaganda role in securing power and control, far outweighs any profit potential for their media balance sheets.
Isn’t that something else? I’ve never even heard if him!
Is he new?
Thanks for your responses to Chuckie T.
The Liberal Agenda Media, (LAM), clearly has an agenda. What is so interesting is their knee-jerk, reflexive response to defend their guy, Obama, whenever Romney puts Obama on the defensive.
IMHO, the LAM knows the hot-button weak positions that Obama has, and jump in quickly to defend Obama.
Their positions in public remind me of the characters in the movie “Ship of Fools.” They have no idea - - - NONE!
Great work! Now following you on Twitter.
And the latest in the breeze of the history of popularity in the documentary film making business that was once dominated by liberal propaganda is the conservative view, i.e. the movie 2016.
They compete for the audience their advertisers want to pay the most for: susceptible people.
I call that group ‘dumb sluts’ (that’s hyperbole!).
The advertisers that pay the bill for media naturally want an audience of gullible liberals for their ads, not skeptical conservatives.
Chuck Todd’s job is to attract that audience. It fits him, look at the childishness of his ‘argument.
Polls that attract a susceptible audience are polls that make the network money.
They see tax units to control.
Capitalists see a huge market!
Kristen, ask chuckie how many days ahead of the debates the prestitutes are going feed the questions to Bambi, cause there is no way they are going to let him make a fool of himself like he did today on Univision answering questions not pre screened by Axlegrease.
I had to watch CNN tonight. Wolf Blitzer lead off his show for the fourth straight night with another viewing and analysis of the “secret Romney tape” that he made sure people knew was part of a 15,000 a plate fundraiser back in May.
Yet no mention of Obama’s 40,000 dollar a head fundraiser with Jay Z just the other night with the giant champagne tower.
These guys are so in the tank for Obama, it is nuts.
You wouldn't be thinking of Retracto, the correction alpaca, by any chance, would you?
Cheers!`
I’ll show you an example of the media paying for a fake poll.
This survey was commissioned by WDIV Local 4, the Detroit News and was blared all over the internet yesterday. It’s complete propaganda but they offer up a error of +/-4.0% with a 95% level of confidence. What a joke.
Obama, Stabenow have lead in Michigan, according to exclusive WDIV, Detroit News survey
Would you say you approve or disapprove of the job Barack Obama is doing as President of the United States?
Strongly approve 36.3%
Approve 56.5%
Somewhat approve 20.2%
Somewhat disapprove 9.7%
113% of Michigan voters polled here approve of Obama in some fashion. LOL
See a Strongly Disapprove category anywhere? Ummm....nope.
See any break down of party affiliation? Ummm....nope
Unreliable data that they can attach a headline and write a propaganda story that they can blare state wide trying to influence the election not report facts.
The Detroit News and WDIV paid for this s###. They are so pathetic.
See the pie chart too funny.
20.2 + 36.3 = 56.5
Approve 56.5%
Strongly approve 36.3%
Somewhat approve 20.2%
Kristinn someone else is paying them.They never lose money.((((Hugs))))
Yeah, why do you think Pravda and Tass were not-for-profit.
So, in 2006 Chuck Todd’s wife & company hired Allen’s “macaca” tracker.

Internet cams snare politicians
Reuters
WASHINGTON - Want to catch a senator napping during a congressional hearing? Or letting a possible racial slur slip out at a campaign rally? Then log on to Internet video sharing web sites like YouTube. com - the latest weapon in U. S. politics where a candidate’s missteps can be viewed by hundreds of thousands of people. Political campaigns for the Nov. 7 congressional elections have sent out mass e mails with links to videos of opponents in unscripted, often embarrassing, situations. Some campaigns have even dispatched young staffers known as “trackers” armed with video cameras. Their sole job is to track a rival candidate’s every move and make sure their cameras are rolling in case the politician makes a gaffe. Republican Sen. George Allen of Virginia got some unwanted publicity when at a political rally he pointed to a tracker sent by rival James Webb’s campaign and called the young man a “ macaca” - an African monkey and sometimes a racial slur. The video of Allen’s remarks to S. R. Sidarth, a 20 year old U. S. college student, spread swiftly on the Internet, drew the attention of Democratic activists and boosted Webb’s campaign.
“If you guys had written it down, it wouldn’t have had nearly the impact,” Webb campaign spokesman Kristian Denny Todd told Reuters. “ But what you saw with the video was, you saw his demeanor, the way he repeated it, the way he did it laughingly. That’s stuff that can’t be captured in words. People have got to see it for themselves.”

Jim Webb hired a tracker to go around and videotape George Allen at all public events ike all campaigns do.

On Wednesday morning, Chuck Todd played the audio of Obama’s speech from 1998 on his show The Daily Rundown, 4 hours before appearing on Andrea Mitchell Reports who refused to play the clip for “authenticity” reasons.
It took less than 12 hours after it was published online at the website of leftist magazine Mother Jones for a video secretly recorded at a Mitt Romney fundraiser in May to appear all over NBC and MSNBC. The heavily-edited video, obtained by the grandson of former President Jimmy Carter, has been a staple of MSNBC coverage the past two days.
