NBC: STAGING THE NEWS AGAIN?

By Michelle Malkin

  ·   April 04, 2006 08:25 AM

A source who monitors political e-mail lists sent me an intriguing message disseminated last week, which involved an apparent Dateline NBC solicitation to Muslim groups. Check this out:

Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2006 13:05:54 -0800 (PST)
From: Subject: Looking for Muslim Males to participate in NBC Dateline Segment

[Forwarded]

Salam,

I hope everyone is doing well.

I have been talking with a producer of the NBC Dateline show and he is in the process of filming a piece on anti-Muslim and anti-Arab discrimination in the USA. They are looking for some Muslim male candidates for their show who would be willing to go to non-Muslim gatherings and see if they attract any

discriminatory comments or actions while being filmed.

They recently taped two turbaned Sikh men attending a football game in Arizona to see how people would treat them. They set them up with hidden microphones and cameras, etc.

They want to do the same thing 2 or 3 other times (in various parts of the USA) with one or two Muslim men in each setting. They are looking for men who actually "look Muslim". They want a guy with no foreign accent whatsoever, a good thick beard, an outgoing personality, and someone willing to wear a kufi/skullcap during the filming.

They also want someone who is fairly well accomplished and has contributed to American society at large in some meaningful way.

That said, I'm urgently looking for someone who can be filmed this April 1st weekend at a Nascar event (and other smaller events) in Virginia. NBC is willing to fly in someone and cover their weekend expenses. The filming would take place all day on Saturday and Sunday.

We already have a hijabi sister who will be filmed there but a Muslim is also needed to join her. I also need candidates for the other filming segments which will take place in the following weeks.

A few weeks later, NBC will fly all the filmed participants to New York City to interview them as a group about their experience and thoughts on discrimination they've faced in America, especially in light of the times we live in (war on terror, 9-11, etc.). The show, if approved by NBC (highly likely), is expected to air sometime this summer.

What I need from interested candidates is an email with an attached clear photograph, a resume, and contact information. I also need basic information such as age, ethnic background, accomplishments, etc.

The sooner I can get this the better and please don't make emails too long. I will then submit a group of candidates to NBC so they can choose the people for the show.

Please forward this to all Muslim lists you can. Because of the upcoming filming in Virginia, this is pretty time-sensitive. My contact information is below.

Salam,

Tarek El-Messidi

Catch that? The apparent "sting" involves targeting Nascar and other sporting events. 'Cause that's presumably where the fair and balanced NBC news staff thinks all the bigots are.

Keep an eye on Dateline NBC here.

I'd love to see an announcement at the beginning of the event, reading this find from Michelle. LOL

I guess they'll have to settle for seconds since Mohammed Atta is unavailable.

--weren't they the show that rigged an explosive device to blow up the gas tank to show how dangerous some Detroit-built vehicle was?

How soon can we expect the fair and balanced media to do the same in reverse? Send a conservative Christian, perhaps w/ a Dr. of Divinity into the classroom of one of these left wing wacko Profs? How about if we mic a Rush look alike and send him to Hollyweird?

seeBS, NBC, ABC? Any takers?

Didn't think so.

How about having a hidden camera film inside a mosque while someone makes pro-USA statements?

Or how about filming someone in Hasidic Jewish garb walking through a muslim neighborhood?

Or filming a Jewish student visiting a mosque?

Come on, NBC! There's a million stories in the Naked City...

"discrimination" is a false and deliberately misleading term.

The ragheads have had their honeymoon with the American people for years, with acceptance at face value.......now, what they try to call "discrimination" is truthfully the collective American response to jihaddi anti-American/"infidel" actions worldwide, but particularly their activities in the US.....the illegal messicans are rapidly approaching this eventuality for themselves, too.

NAACP used to do this kind of stuff in the 60s and 70s.

One tactic was to send a Black couple into a predominately white community, visit a local real estate office and see if they could 'buy' a house. If they failed to get a negative reaction, they would find a pretense to leave without actually buying; if they succeeded in getting a negative reaction, they would threaten law suits. [Heard of Jesse Jackson's 'shakedowns'?]

Sickening, propaganda crap for their continuing campaign to paint the Islamic cults as victims.

They have been doing this to Israel for decades.

JUST my guess...
but I suspect there is an semi-organized cadre of Muslim/Arab types
that run these operations.
They just hope to elicit "discrimination" by acting like they might
be casing a potential bombing site, or by leaving materials that
reasonable observers think might be planted explosives.

Then, if they are even looked at cross-ways by the public or police...
the call to CAIR, ACLU, MSM and the other shock-troops of the left
goes in and we all hear about how bigoted "Americans" are.

Although I can't give a link, Los Angeles Times columnist Steve Lopez
did a column about a week he spent with the LAPD bomb squad soon after
the London rail/bus bombings.
Although Lopez wouldn't draw conclusions, he did report that the bomb
squad was getting quite a few "false positives" concerning males entering
public transportation, acting suspiciously, then leaving "packages"
that were never bombs.
It sure sounded like somebody that WANTED to be caught, so they could
file some sort of "violation of civil rights" complaint.
At least that was my conclusion.

Another example of MSM "Fake but Accurate" mentality.

Hey, I have an idea....Have a Muslim rag head show up at a street basketball tournament and see if he gets any attention.

Idiots

Oh, and wasn't it NBC News that did the faked explosion of
Chevy pickups years ago?

Just a short step to creating imaginary bombers in the midst of the
the NASCAR crowd!

NBC is creating news again? I am shocked. At least they are not biased. I also want to have them send terrorist looking and acting individuals to a gay parade, a comedy club, a liberal media gala, Disney World, the Ballet, etc.

Finally, I want the terrorist looking individuals to be sent to France and go to a soccer game. Maybe Germany too. Since the MSM thinks we should be more like Europe, let's see if the "muslim" looking guy gets out of soccer game unscathed.
