I Google searched for many mins to find a link to document what I just heard this evening on HBO's Vice News interview.

Luntz asked Vice News head Shane Smith if he would like to buy some of his acreage. And he's moving before the economy crashes.

You may call this opinion if you like, but I know what I heard. Perhaps since I cannot link it, you think I should delete the thread?

YouTube should have the interview up sooner or later.

without it being implied that it's just the poster's opinion or imagination, as you just have. You're saying I cannot be trusted. Thanks. I'm taking this personally.

You can then say that any other person reporting on this is also delusional.

Goodbye.

I cannot find a link. Do you think I should remove the thread? I simply posted what I heard and tried to find a link.

If posters think I cannot trusted to report what I heard, then I'll remove this thread. I'm not agreeing with Frank Luntz's opinion but only reporting what HE said.

It does count in my book. pbmus would probably disagree.

Poster up thread has been insulting and I'm so tempted to just delete the thread.

Btw, this Vice News Special Report segment is going to repeat at 10:30 ET on HBO.

Then it can be inferred that anyone reporting on this is delusional.

Comment from "beanporn" this morning:
Frank Luntz, who I normally think is a fool, hits the nail on the head in regards to our current political landscape and how toxic and non-productive it's become. He equates us to Rome and says we should all move to New Zealand. Even with that ridiculous rug on his head he made sense.


I hope that's not some "hated" place for DU'ers that I don't know about!

To be clear, in saying "how toxic and non-productive it's become," he was referring to the Trump induced toxicity, not the Democrats.

You are ok. And I understand your frustration. It's just that with "fake news" among other things, trust is a hard thing to find. I'm sure that the show will be posted soon.

Someone could have ck'd my profile before assuming. I've been a member of DU for 14+yrs, had another handle prior to "Duppers".

But thanks. I'm fine now.
