‘What An F-ing Disaster’: NBC Hot Mic Moment Appears To Catch Panelist Trashing Iowa Caucuses

A hot mic moment appeared to capture an NBC News panelist trashing the Iowa caucuses Monday evening after technical issues forced a massive delay in results.

An issue with the phone application used to report results caused the delay, according to multiple reports. As of Tuesday morning, the results were still not in.

“Oh my god, what an f-ing disaster,” someone appearing to be an NBC panelist could be heard in the background during the live segment Monday as the issue unfolded.

NBC News did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Daily Caller.

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) disputed reports that the application was to blame, saying in a statement Monday there were “inconsistencies in the reporting of three sets of results.”

“In addition to the tech systems being used to tabulate results we are also using photos of results and a paper trail to validate that all results match and ensure that we have confidence and accuracy in the numbers we report. This is simply a reporting issue,” the DNC said in a statement.

Former Vice President Joe Biden appeared to disagree with the DNC’s claim, writing in a letter that both the application and the backup system failed.

I saw a report on Twitter of a moving van full of marked ballots found at the airport.

They let you vote at the airport ?

It’s not your APP. It’s just an inconsistency in data.

Doubtful. They were transported there from somewhere by somebody. Our media completely lacks the intellectual curiosity to find the answers, though, so we'll likely never know.

Come November the level of voter fraud the Democrats will commit will be unlike anything they’ve ever done. Wish the conservative media would start putting it out there but in reality I think they’d like to see Trump lose. They all would. He’s upset the apple cart. If he keeps draining the swamp in DC everybody loses. Democrats, Republicans, lobbyists , defense contractors, media outlets. They’re all in bed with each other and feeding at the teat of the taxpayer.
