Luntz Trying to Freep CNN's Real-Time SOTU Poll
Luntz Trying to Freep CNN's Real-Time SOTU Poll

For some reason, my leftie mom wound up on an email list for Luntz Research. (I know, ewwww, gross.) Anyway, she forwarded the below email to me. It is clearly being sent to Luntz's list of lunkheads so they can flood CNN's dial testing of the SOTU with anti-Obama static. Let's all forward this to our friends and relatives so we can counteract this effect. These guys (as usual) have nothing to show in terms of constructive policy, just more delay, distraction, destruction and victimhood. Such losers.


From: Maslansky, Luntz & Partners

Subject: State of the Union Online Panel Invitation

We would like to invite you to participate in a first-of-its-kind live CNN event that will provide the unique opportunity to register your personal, real-time reactions to tomorrow night’s State of the Union address.

Your reactions, along with those of others around the country, will be part of CNN’s state of the union coverage.

The system works just like the dial testing you may have seen on CNN and Fox – except YOU will be one of the participants, reacting to the president’s speech on your computer, in real-time, from your home or office.

Your participation will help balance the post-speech coverage by providing pundits with real-time feedback from thousands of people around the country.

To participate, please go to the link below by 8:55 pm EST/5:55pm PST on Tuesday, January 25th and follow the instructions on the screen. Thanks in advance for your help and we look forward to seeing what you think of the speech.

4. That's rather remarkable...
Luntz seems like a hired gun (ie, no personal loyalty to any ideology). He's hired by Fox, not CNN. He's to develop effective messaging for the GOP (presumably) not drive grassroots activism.

This email is clearly benefiting CNN and driving grassroots activism.

That a bit of a departure, I think.

Very strange. Guess he's becoming a jack of all trades propagandist?

9. Luntz tells us all the time he would help the Democrats if they would only allow him to.
I'm guessing this is what he means. :shrug:
