Frank Luntz Explains His Mystery Man in the focus groups

[weagle]

You notice that in the luntz group they all thought romney won the debate. So they must all agree with him and are going to vote for him. So tomorrow look for Romney to win with 100% of the vote. I mean this is a cross reference of NH residents.

He likes to see how peoples opinions change.... hum... is that after he tells them what to say and pays them?

I have a Ph.D but what does that matter? Most anybody can spot a fake program after just watching a few, especially when they see the same 'undecided voters' in two of them.

He is just trying to wiggle out of the noose.

anyone got the site to the guy who took the video who said he was gonna post a longer vid/follow up today?

"It allows me to see how people's opinion have changed over time," he explained. "I'm trying to isolate that moment that made the difference."

Has he ever mentioned this before ??? Does he mention this in his sales literature or in his contract ??? I thinks he's full of it.

I'm calling shenanigans!

If that was the case why is it only one guy? If Luntz was looking to see a shift in their beliefs throughout a period of time, reason would suggest that he would have more than one person back. I didn't notice any other people in the videos that looked like they were in both videos.

Didn't Luntz originally say during the debates that the groups were randomly selected of undecided individuals? Why didn't he say they were randomly chosen EXCEPT for Chuck because he wanted to study him over time.

Also it doesn't matter if Chuck favored Romney in one session & Mccain in another. All of the candidates neo-conservative beliefs are the same & inline with the Fox media machine. Ron Paul is the only true conservative with positions that are radically dangerous to Fox's status quo.

There are at least 3, probably more. It's still a lie, or they would have mentioned that as a "feature" of the segment/program/focus group.

I was doing an experiment, I wanted to how NH voters opinions changed after being presented with a solid wall of opinion from a controlled focus group.

FYI: At my university, this would violate all ethics for scientific experiment.

The fact that they actually responded means this grassroots movement is making a HUGE difference.

The fact that they are being paid and is an experiment of sorts needs disclosed before EACH broadcast. From what I have seen on TV, Fox makes it sound like these people are picked from the streets and have never seen Frank before in their lives (or at least very limited time).

However it sounds to me like he personally knows them all if he continues to invite them back. This guy's experiment is changing public opinion and he knows it!

The next Fox debate is later this month in South Carolina. Let's see if we can get Luntz discredited and off the air by then.
