WOW! Matthews admits "somebody just told me to ask that question in my ear."
Edited on Mon Apr-30-07 04:36 PM by Atman
Holy shit...didn't even try to hide it. I missed the question even, but his response caught my ear...even the guy he's interviewing, John Harris, said "I didn't think that sounded like one of your questions." Tweety laughed and said "Somebody just told me to ask that question in my ear."

Hey, lurking freepers...fuck you and your 'liberal media' crock 'o shit!

2. Matthews' producer during 2000 campaign went to work in Bush WH after he
began his occupation. What does THAT tell you about the producers NBC hires?

3. so?
they always have an earpiece with directors and producers talking to them. I don't think this is surprising at all.

6. In the first 15 minutes of the Moyer's piece the show bu$h at press conference
Bu$h comes to the podium and one reporter doesn't ask the correct question and it shows bu$h saying, "this thing is scripted" Then he moves on to another reporter and says "I think you have a question for me "
Then she reads the softball question "how is your faith"

7. My bet is on Dick - as he's the one micromanaging the media.

8. the question is not if matthews wears an ifb. of course he does
and im sure the producers prompt him all of the time.

the issue was if bush was wired during the debates and interviews and if he had someone (rove) putting the right answers into his rotten melon. and to that I say. of course he did, it is obvious by his body language. and they lied about it, just like they lie about everything large and small.

9. Um, of course he is linked via voice to his producer. When you are on tv hosting a show you will be
as well.

10. And to the director, as well. You're right — this is not any secret. It's the way
TV works.

11. This is just ridiculous.
The question was about submitting questions for the Republican debate - the same thing they did for the Democratic debates. Producers talk to the on-air people on a regular basis.
