Edited on Tue Sep-02-03 06:42 PM by DemocratSinceBirth
How come he didn't hold anybody else out for ridicule?

7. Luntz was a consultant
for the Repukes on the Recall. So much for impartiality in polling.

16. Jeez, he's not even trying to seem 'fair and balanced.'
What a tool--and I mean that figuratively and literally.

Trying to help him out. It's obvious Tweety wants Schwarzenegger--all the better for the media. What a whore.

26. Show Biz Tweety
I still can't believe I used to actually like this guy only three years ago...at least then he attempted to seem fair.

Tweety's trying to "pump" up the numbers on the #3 cable network and figures he can suck up the Angry White Guys who between hume and oreilly. Intelligent people are watching the Newshour.

Yep, Tweety's sweating cause it looks like the shelf life on this California circus is running out of gas. Most people got overdosed with Arnold and how evil Davis was/is that the election is sure to be anti-climatic...even if Arnold wins.

What's got Tweety in a twit is now in bed with a bunch of snake oil merchants, like Yutz...I mean Lutz...and he has to feel the sleeze all over him. He's forced to make these yahoos look good cause they're now his meal ticket.

I've worked survey and focus groups for over two decades and Lutz commits several major sins for an "objective" researcher/pollster...

1.) You never interupt someones response...no matter how off the wall it is.

2.) You allow the group to ebb and flow...interact, question and challenge one another...excellent for your final group profile (a lot of things come out in exchanges you can't get off a form)

3.) If there's an interchange with the group leader, never give a definitive opinion and where possible, answer a question with a question.

4.) Always return to an important question later on...framed one or two different ways to see the comparisons and contrasts in responses.

These are just a few. But then there are two schools of research...one that wants to learn, the other that needs to prove. We know which one Mr. Yutz is...or else he'd have to get a real job and toupe.

19. is it valid for a pollster to change people's answers?
Luntz declared "this is not about subverting democracy" after several people said that they thought it WAS about subverting democracy.

When Luntz conducts polls, does he change people's answers like this?

25. MSNBC is worse than FOX
saw a 'scarborough country' marathon when i was flipping past over the weekend.

what is it with that guy? does he have pictures of nbc head neal shapiro with a goat? dead intern comes in last in the ratings every week and he's still here almost a year later.

they only gave phil donahue a month or two until they were leaking cancellation news to drudge and the usual suspects. the official end of the show a few months later was just a formality. but joe gets the full backing of the network and is incessantly promoted
