NBC News’ ‘Undecided’ Voters Previously Featured as Biden Supporters on MSNBC

NBC News featured a pair of "undecided" voters during a network town hall earlier this week who had previously declared their support for Democratic nominee Joe Biden on the network's sister channel, MSNBC.

Lawyer Peter Gonzalez and marketing executive Ismael Llano posed questions to Biden during a town hall on Monday, when he appeared before what the network described as an "audience of undecided Florida voters."

Both Gonzalez and Llano, however, were featured in an MSNBC segment in August to explain why they support Biden. "If we get four more years of Trump, good luck, and good luck with the future attracting younger voters," Gonzalez said as an MSNBC chyron noted he was "voting for Biden." Llano was also identified as "voting for Biden" and offered praise for the former vice president.

On Monday, NBC's Lester Holt said that Llano "voted for Hillary Clinton four years ago but has voted Republican in the past." Gonzalez, whose voting history went unmentioned, asked Biden to ease his family's concerns that the Democrat is beholden to "the radical left."

"Cuban American and Venezuelan voters here in South Florida are being targeted with messages by the Trump campaign claiming that a vote for Joe Biden is a vote for the radical left and socialism, and even communism," Gonzalez said. "What can you tell people in my family, my friends—who are understandably concerned with that issue—that would make them feel comfortable voting for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris?"

It is not the first time that television networks have featured Trump opponents masquerading as undecided voters, who are difficult to find and often less publicly vocal about their political views. ABC News last month described several Trump critics as undecided voters, including one who had previously described Trump as a "f—ing moron," "pathetic," "pig," "swine," and...

There’s a reason they call it a “show.”

Lester Holt’s got the square jaw, deep voice and professorial glasses but he’s another partisan hack moron.

Sheesh. You’d think they can dig up fresh hacks, rather than just recycling the old. On the other hand it’s instructive to show the utter lack of integrity of people on the other side. People who will say, do, or represent themselves as anything to win. You know, like Christine Blaise Ford, and thousands of others who are just the ones who have popped up in the news over the years

NBC’s “undecided voters” are exactly as fake as NBC’s “Biden is ahead by 14 points” fake poll.
Believe any of those at your great peril.

For what it's worth I think this is a good thing. If they're cheating at this level in order to look like they're winning or competitive, the odds are very high that they internally know they are getting their asses beat. I like that. When they cheat it's proof that they know they are already losing.👍👍😄

NBC and all it’s affiliates are such a fraud. All of their talking heads and anchors should just where a big DNC lapel pin. They really should just stay the hell out of politics. More and more people are on to their partisan deceit every day.

It's beyond fraudulent. It's the REAL election tampering and interference.

No, they moved from MSNBC to NBC.

The question is, did the producers know?

Isn’t NBC the ones who put a rocket engine igniter in a fual tank to fake a report about exploding gas tanks?
