MSNBC Deletes Scarborough Criticism of NBC’s ‘Cooked’ Poll Helping Hillary
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 10/11/2016 7:32:02 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

During the opening 6AM segment of today’s Morning Joe, Scarborough accused NBC of having “cooked” its current poll to favor Hillary Clinton. But at 8AM when Morning Joe replayed that opening segment, Scarborough’s criticism of the NBC poll . . . had disappeared. Instead, the video jumped ahead to Mika Brzezinski’s reading of the poll results themselves, which showed Hillary Clinton with an 11-14% lead.

Scarborough’s point was that NBC sampled only during the height of the hot mic hysteria, but didn’t include sampling from after the debate, widely viewed as having been won by Trump. Joe obviously knew he was skating on thin network ice, prefacing his criticism by saying “we work here. We really love working here. We love this place.”

Looks like MSNBC censored Morning Joe to delete Scarborough’s criticism of “cooked” pro-Hillary NBC poll.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

Politics is about hypocrisy, more than anything else. Hypocrisy is the tribute that vice pays to virtue. The newly “puritanical” MSM is heavily biased to the favor of the Clinton rapists and dares to even pile on by threatening those same powerless victims and victimizing them again. The media, as the once defenders of the weak and powerless, are derelict in their duty, and instead of challenging the fascist, psychotic tendencies of meglo-maniacal politicians, they have chosen to become their propaganda organ. The Clintons are at the bottom of this inferno, of the destruction of our culture, of the unbinding of the tyrants, of the unraveling of the world - look to the explosion of terrorism, of nuclear threats, of butchering tyrants, of millions of refugees, of weapons of mass destruction, of millions of illegal aliens, of everyday crime, of the spread of heroin, of the destruction of our police, of the division of our races, of the corruption of the FBI, of the politicization of every government institution, of the falsification of vital intelligence, of the failure to protect our soldiers to serve political ends, of the selling of fetal body parts, of the constant lying and the posturing to gain political power, of personal failure and lack of direction of young people - this is where these two demonic twins live, they destroy everything they touch - they rape, they kill, they make war, they lie - they are a plague on America and the world. The Devil is unleashed.

On the positive side, the ridiculous poll numbers have gone into RealClearPolitics averages. As better poll numbers come out, the averages are going to improve for Trump. Thus a “Trump is surging” narrative will be here in the near future.

For more information on the “cooked poll” .. go to ConservativeTreehouse.com they have exposed the poll and show what they did to reach an 11-pt lead for Hillary.

TOTALLY FAKE.

That shows it was deliberate on the part of CNBC. They can’t claim that it was a mistake because if it had been a mistake they would have apologized - or at least allowed Joe and Mika to says that the poll was taken at the height of the Trump-tape frenzy and before the debate. They didn’t allow any of that but specifically cut out anything that would tell the public the truth.

That means it is deliberate. The whole thing. NBC and Wall Street Journal.

We all know the setup here. Trump wins on election night. Liberals are bumfuzzled(Bobby Bowden word). Obama and his DOJ get to work, supporting lawsuits by sore loser Democrats. Trying to invalidate the election. They find a Federal Judge to rule on something to invalidate things. Media jumps on it, BLM type riots, civil unrest. We wait again by Supreme Court steps, for a court to decide. That's a crap shoot.

During the break someone spoke into his earpiece “Billy Bush...Billy Bush...Billy Bush”.

LOL: and seriously, you could be right. Joe was obviously a bit nervous about criticizing NBC, prefacing his remarks by saying how much he loved the place.

And it’s certainly possible that he did get some criticism or ‘guidance’ from the suits during a break!

"Communists are not really into free speech.

Let's just see if Joe wants to go along to save his own @ss on MSNBC or if he'll blow this wide open. My bet is he'll go along to get along since he's a know turncoat already.

Absolutely disgusting, yet again.

There is no election in history which has seen such biased media coverage. And yes, I’m counting elections in Nazi Germany and North Korea in that.

Just curious. Does anyone see negative effects in the polling from the released video? All I can see is a decline that started a week ago, prior to the video, but nothing more than say maybe a 0.5% decline due to the video.

If Donald continues to expose the Clinton garbage; I’m predicting a LANDSLIDE .. the likes of which have never been seen before.
