Perhaps I’m not bright enough to understand your reply, but the gist of it seems to be that if they appear on FOX then Fox is responsible for all they do, how they do it and whom they use to do it with. Were this a taped segment then ok, maybe.

Here is a link to the home page of Luntz:

http://www.luntz.com/

Here you will find an explanation of what it is he does. There is also a solicitation for people to join his focus group(s). This says that people who join these groups are NOT random selections done the day the event in question is focus grouped.

I am not sure of this but maybe he has different groups for Dems, Rep, and Ind.

It would then not be unusual to see the same individual at different Luntz focus group events.

First of all your plenty bright as shown by you ability to use good English.

However,Fox is ultimately responsible for hiring and paying Frank Luntz to put together these Focus groups.

Therefore Fox is ultimately responsible for any information that is aired over their network.

Comment

I think it is highly unusual for any individual to be at a focus group more than once.

There are probably hundreds if not thousands of Republicans or Democrats that are good candidates for a focus group.

With that said I still think the focus groups are a good idea.

Frank just needs to do a better job of vetting the individual members.
