Who is Costas Panagopoulos?
Who is Costas Panagopoulos? The MSM keeps quoting him as a disinterested political observer of the presidential campaign season who works as a political science professor at Fordham University.
Newsbusters tells you the rest of the story.
And yes, Hillary Clinton’s involved again.
Mark Costas Panagopoulos down as an analyst seriously not to be trusted.

Yet another plant or beyond liberal professor [would be] – they are all the same – those who can, do and those who can’t teach.
Gee, all this good stuff I miss by totally ignoring the drain dream media.
Two other points from the bio
He taught at the New School where Norman Hsu was there along with a bunch of Hillary bundlers and he worked in the past for the firm run by Mark Penn who is Hillary’s leading pollster.
As a member of the Public Affairs and Crisis Management units at Burson-Marsteller, the world’s largest public relations firm
Hillary’s paid minions are EVERYWHERE!
That picture of him is scary enough! Again, why am I not surprised?
Isn’t he Larry’s roommate? You know the guy who keeps breaking out in “The Dance of Joy.”
I spliced together two lines from Mr. Panagopolous’ autobiography, found within the Newsbuster’s article:
If this chronology is as accurate as Panagopolous’ autobiography seems to indicate, then NBC News policy appears to include, hiring Hillary Clinton employees to represent their “Decision Desk” team during election cycles when Hillary is up for reelection.
The irritating part is, the MSM will probably not have a problem with him being cited as a “disinterested political observer”, even with the HRC link uncovered. I’m sure they can create a justifiable reason as to why he should not be seen as biased. Geez!
And somebody needs to tell Tucker Carlson that we know where his stolen ties got to.
Get out of the city!
I also wonder if NBC News clearly indicated Mr. Panagopolous as a “former Hillary Clinton employee” when they hired him to be a part of their “Decision Desk” team in 2006, the year that Hillary was up for reelection?
Were any former republican congressional staffers hired on as menbers of the NBC News “Decision Desk” team in 2006?
Where’s my belt, I need a place to hang all these “tools”; MSM Tools!
I would be interested to know from any of AP Writer, Glen Johnson’s friends and acquaintances from college if Glen was as lazy a student as he is a writer for the ASS-ociated Press.
Yet Hillary tries any way…

You get PhD for churning out an analysis like this?
No offense to any PhDs out there.
As a former Hillary Clinton staffer (2004-2005)I wonder what kind of decisions Mr. Panagopolous made as a member of the NBC News “Decision Desk” team in 2006, the year his former employer was running for reelection as the senator from NY State?
Yet Hillary tries any way…
But she gets away with it because the Lame Stream Media will always cover for her. It becomes more clear that directly or indirectly, many are on her payroll.
That is a difficult thing to overcome for anyone on the right. The “R’s” will only get a fair shake on Fox, talk radio, or blogs like this one. No matter what we say or do, there is a huge segment of the population that gets their information from totally liberal dominated sources. Sad but true.
I can’t trust someone who wears a bow tie.
He looks alot like Raymond. That is all.
Nice cheezer smile, to go along with the Orville Redennbaucher Tie, bro!
(immature, I know, but its Friday)
That fake, stupid grin makes him look like Andy Kaufman, to me.
maybe this is why hillary doesn’t need to talk to the press, cause she has her ‘people’ planted all over the press. that way you don’t have to worry about that right wing conspiracy.
Costas Panagopoulos – Another Hillary Clinton “Trojan Horse?”
Mark Costas Panagopoulos down as an analyst seriously not to be trusted.
Why, did he not like the Mitt speech?
Who is Costas Panagopoulos?
Latka Gravas’ cousin from Meepos? Thank you very much!
The only “disinterest” he has is in considering anyone other than HRC
Correction:
Balki Bartokomous was from Mypos. Maybe Costas is related to Balki.
Phd = Piled Higher and Deeper
Oh for goodness sake. You all are looking for things to complaign about. We all know because the MSM tells us so that only moderate left leaning progressive liberals can be fair and balanced with thier thinking and analysis.
Since the political spectrum has been reinvented. The left has become moderate and the far left has moved to almost moderate. Therefore any one who is conservative or right leaning is a radical don’t cha know.
2007/08 democratic strategy …. plant questioners and infiltrate all political analysis with left wingers and therefore paint anyone else as a right wing war mongering radical who supports imperialsm.
Politics what a wonderful game. (totally sarcastic)

Ah, yes, the old B.S., M.S., PhD progression.
LOL!
‘Course, one of our sons got his PhD a year ago – in Chemistry, where you actually have to know something, and you are either correct or wrong…with BIG consequences on some occasions if you’re wrong….
(In other words, it’s virtually impossible to fake it.)
But, he laughs along with this joke, too!
If I remember correctly the Clinton’s have done a great job of infiltrating the leftist MSM with their operatives. Good to see the light of day shown on them as the pop-up working for the various networks newsrooms. According to Fox news this morning NBC and MSNBC are down sizing today. One can only hope he is one of those that will be looking for new employment.
Does anyone know if the impartial NYT ever quoted this guy in their non-agenda driven newspaper?
Here is an “impartial” quote from June 7, 2007 of this year from the NYT:
“The document is the second confidential Clinton campaign file to leak in the last two weeks; the first, which was also provided to The New York Times, was a memorandum by the deputy campaign manager recommending that Mrs. Clinton skip the Iowa caucuses in 2008. Costas Panagopoulos, a political science professor at Fordham University who studies fund-raising, said the Clinton operation was so strategic that it probably leaked the data to influence fund-raising expectations. Recalling that some Clinton donors were surprised by Mr. Obama’s strong first quarter, Mr. Panagopoulos said he believed the campaign would want to have a record-breaking second quarter, as Mr. Wolfson signaled.
“It looks like they’re kicking it up a notch, and I’m sure their initial pie-in-the-sky fund-raising number has been augmented,” Mr. Panagopoulos said.”
Here’s the link
And here’s another “impartial” quote from an April 5, 2007 article about fundraising.
”This reflects on the part of Democrats not only their view of the prospects of victory in 2008, but also how they are coming off this rush of the 2006 elections,” said Costas Panagopoulos, a political science professor at Fordham University. ”In terms of Republican candidates, voters are feeling like they have to choose from a list of who represents the least of all evils.”
…the least of all evils. Nah, that’s not impartial. Just completely negative, that’s all.
Here’s the link to the article:
Or the MSM is doing a great job of RECRUITING?????
I was skeptical about Gore’s Global Warming theory, but I am now a firm believer in National Greenhousing with all these plants.

Apparently, Hillary’s campaign itself causes global warming.
This is the face of your future.
Old style fascists were content merely to stamp their feet on your face. Modern fascists will demand this face become your own.
And yes, he really does look like a character Andy Kaufman considered and rejected. Instead of “Foreign man,” (I hope I got that right), it would “A-hole, Political Man.”
Can he at least bake a good pizza?
He looks like Jerry Seinfeld.
