Live mic catches Fox host inflating crowd estimate by 300%

[DavidS]

Here's Fox News host Neil Cavuto talking with a producer at 12:10PM, recorded on a live mic (update: Cavuto was in Sacramento):

CAVUTO: Any estimates on how many people are here?
PRODUCER: No, we're trying to get...
CAVUTO: There's gotta' be 5,000.
PRODUCER: Oh, at least. You know, I mean the cops aren't going to tell us, and we've been trying to get ahold of the PR person to give us their number, but I think 5,000. You can say it's starting at 5,000 [unintelligble, but sounds like "and maybe it's more."].
​

And here's Cavuto less than ten minutes later, tripling his crowd estimate during his on-air broadcast:

CAVUTO: I know you cover a lot of these things Shep, so you're probably better at estimating crowd sizes than I am. They were expecting 5,000 here, it's got to be easily double, if not triple that.
​

To recap: off-air, Cavuto is recorded estimating the crowd at 5,000, perhaps slightly more. On-air, Cavuto says the crowd is "easily" double or triple that.


Fox News, they report...you decide.

If I were you I would hope they didn't catch me on a live web cam photoshopping prom dresses.

I was trying to get a count from a local news source, but I got stuck on this story:

Nude photos cost cheerleading coach her job - Latest News - sacbee.com

Carlie Becker is no longer a cheerleading coach at Casa Roble High School.

Her short tenure at the Orangevale school apparently ended after officials learned that Carlie Becker is also Carlie Christine, Playboy's "cyber girl of the week."

Nothing to say about Fox are your stupid little tea parties, eh?

Cavuto is a bag of douche at baseline, so this doesn't surprise me.

I can think of a long list of words that could be used to describe that beauty, but "hag" would not be on the list.

Try doing a google image search for 'Carlie Christine'. Make sure safe search is OFF.

BTW, isn't 100% two times, 200% three times and 300% four times?

it's got to be easily double, if not triple that.

Are you getting the point of this article or not? Far be it for me to post something from DailyKos, but come on -- they can't be more intelligent than you are. Or can they?

A newscaster can't estimate the number of people in a crowd.
DavidS can't do simple math.

Well, that's just outrageous.

I'm going to fight for justice to clear the name of this hot babe, er I mean, "innocent woman," or whatever.

Um ... so .... basically like all media they are sensationalizing ... just par for the course.

ummm... no.. basically they're lying. punching up your story is an entirely different thing.

and remember the "million man march"
the one that had about 500k at best

davidS memory is piss poor

 

[Diuretic]

That's amazing! Not one wingnut addressed the issue. Well I suppose they were snookered but why would you bring in such blatantly obvious diversionary tactics?

Doesn't it make you feel just a little bit stupid?

 

[Old Rocks]

Nor are the wingnuts going to address the silliness of their own. They had their little "Tea Party", did it on a work day, so those of us that work realize that they were people who do not.

Right now, in this nation, there are several million that are desperate to be in the position of paying taxes again. But these people don't thing that is a matter of concern. As long as deficits are run up starting wars on the basis of lies, they are good. When they are ran up to strengthen the nation, and create jobs for American Citizens, deficits are bad. A weird world of alternative reality they live in.
