Fox Focus Group EXPOSED! :)

[angelatc]

Actually, I'm leaning towards Tucker.

Ironically, the other candidates besides Romney would be interested in this too, since they used the focus group to promote him. They especially went after Huckabee in the focus group.

Ironic, because the other candidates were dissed by fox in a crooked focus group, after being dishonarable with fox in going on a crooked forum.

Still, send it to them. Maybe they will learn. When you lie with snakes, you get bitten.

Just emailed the links with time references and context to The Cafferty File

You can't sue a tv show for having actors

Help me out. I've seen outlets use the same focus groups through the course of a campaign before. Has Fox claimed that these were different groups or different people? Where's the smoking gun here? I'm missing it.

The smoking gun is that they are introduced as undecided voters as if they just pulled them off the street. Clearly they have a chosen team of people/actors.

QFT - I was about to say the same thing....we need to create a stink, even more than we have. Every non-Romney campaign ought to be pissed about this.

What state was the first focus group in. I think that's the only big deal issue... otherwise, dude is just an undecided voter who loves Luntz.

Jenn is right, calm down people. This thing should be fact-checked first.

You are totally allowed to sue the news for misrepresentation...

Yes but they are violating FCC laws by fabricating the opinion and tipping the election. (same reason why Kuccinich is suing ABC)

Either way, you'd get could press on it from other stations.

Given that three people might be identified as in both focus groups, this suggests that FAUX may have hired people to go around to various debates. That in turn suggests that these people are being fed, given accommodation and possibly are getting paid. It also suggests that they aren't likely to be New Hampshire residents.

I saw another post where an "undecided" member of Fox News' focus group also had a Romney website.

Report it to CNN: http://www.cnn.com/exchange/ireports/topics/forms/breaking.news.html

Keith Olbermann would have a field day with this!!!!

EDIT: He HATES Faux News

 

[Dave Pedersen]

What laws have been broken? Any lawyers among us who can spell it out? Surely there is fraud by "journalists" to sway the election. How does this translate into legal action?

Class action lawsuit? We the people vs. NewsCorp?

Last election, PBS followed the SAME FOCUS GROUP of ORGINALLY UNDECIDED VOTERS through all the debates up to the election. Are you sure FOX isn't doing the same thing?

When you say "introduced as if they pulled them off the street", someone had better find the exact words on that.

I'm not doubting theres a good story here, but let's spell it out and understand it before people go off sending notes to media.

email him then, i will...

 

[Sey.Naci]

Doubt that laws apply here, but ethics - or the lack thereof - sure do!

yep, there were other "questionables" too, but I can't recall all of them.

Yes, but they also are claiming to be NH Residents...
