Meet The Press.... props up 49-49 Ohio Poll... ignores more recently polling showing Obama ahead.

[aaaaaa5a]

I was watching Meet The Press. And good old Chuck Todd was at his wall. He and David Gregory were touting the "so called" latest poll showing Ohio tied 49-49. Of course there was no mention of that fact that the poll was a week old. And that most of it was done before the 3rd debate. And of course they ignored the more recent polls out of Ohio showing the President ahead from 3-4 points.


AMAZING PROPAGANDA!

1. Gotta feed the horse race narrative...

The MSM are ratings whores...

16. Actually good for us, helps the GOTV mentality, gotta vote...nt

2. Obama is at least 5 points ahead in OH, if not more.

3. Voters are not swinging around every few days as MSM would have us believe

Gregory and Todd are only trying to aid NBC earn more advertising revenue and keep their jobs interesting. So they will regularly speak these things.

Media does more damage to our democracy than anyone else. They were supposed to be on people's side but now they are only after money

Few people watch these kind of shows so don't need to worry about it's impact

13. Didn't they do the same thing in '08?

If I remember correctly, said Obama and McCain were neck and neck? Close elections are good for ratings which is all the MSM cares about rather than actual news.

4. Cheaters new word of the day tied.

5. I wanted Maddow

to say don't we, as a world class journalism organization, have a poll that is more recent than a week + ago?

6. Yeah that was a little rough

I just early voted in FL and was on such a high. Then watched Meet the Press with all the repubs talking about how Mitt is going to win. Ugh ruined my morning.

12. Had to turn it off

ruined my morning. Feel better getting my news from DU.

7. Poll worrywarts

Please chill. Obama is well ahead in the states that matter.

We got this!

Forward!

8. Relax...They're playing into our hands

Horse race drives turnout, which guarantees a win in OH. I much prefer that to any of our voters thinking early voting sealed the deal.

9. George Stephanopolus did the same thing on This Week.

[Thrill]

10. Well let them. Maybe it will remind Democrats

How important it is to GOTV

[TheKentuckian]

11. Stop watching and they will go away

[jsmirman]

14. David Gregory is an anus-mouthed hack

Only his ego blinds him to how bad he is at his job.

What a stiff.

[Jennicut]

15. Meet the Press is useless. As is CBS This Morning and This Week on ABC.

Only Up w/ Chris Hayes or Melissa Harris-Perry is worth watching on the weekends. The hacks are on NBC, CBS and ABC. They ceased to do real journalism years ago. And their average viewership age is up there with Faux news.
