I live in a city where Frankie does many focus groups– a few blocks from my house. It’s always a quick 100 bucks to go sit and play with his “patented Fox News Dials” (they are actually not patented, and not from Fox News), and get a preview of what agenda will be pushed next. I have done over TEN groups with him— they never check who they hire— they just need to fill the seats to look good for whatever client is behind the one-way glass. I have been in many groups where people walk out. He insults people, forces the ‘correct’ answers from people, browbeats people…. He’ll cut you off if you give an opinion he does not like. Once, when he left the room the whole group was so pi**ed off, we all agreed to swing his ‘dials’ at random– and he concocted ‘trends’ from this to prove a later point. Scientific, indeed. He’s just another B.S. artist making a buck…. just like me, also making a buck (from him) Although Luntz is a Fox News tool, the guy who showed up at two focus groups in New Hampshire was more likely because of sloppiness and laziness than any other motive.

The deeper into the Al Queda our economy sinks the more likely this rage will become physical. Frankly speaking he should never again appear in public even to step from building to car without the protection of Bill O's Fox security forces. We all remember Bill O's Fox security forces who have the sophistication to enter into our lives to enforce Bill O's outrage at anyone who speak the truth on the Fox network. Well Frank do you think the SS of corporate security can get you from building to car without facing real Americans? The current poll numbers a leaning to the angry Americans kicking your Neocon butt by 73%. Now thats a poll I can believe in. FU Frank.

You mention an hour long conversation with the infamous, "Chuck" a repeat member of Frank's Focus group. Is this the same "Chuck" who was video taped threatening and beating a Gore supporter at a presidential election rally/protest many years ago?

Some of the members are clearly repeat offenders, they are in every single focus group. I don't see how he could say Ron Paul's campaign is not positive, it is the most positive thing in politics these days, and if Ron Paul's supporters are angry, it is only because they have been provoked by Luntz and all the other media shills.

It seems that either Frank Luntz conspired with this person in the focus group or that this person in the focus group is trying to skew the results in some way. Are these two separate events? It would be really interesting to see if the person in the focus group could be identified and then interviewed about this issue. I suppose this can be taken in more than one way.
