Hillary Clinton was sporting a mini earbud wired to receive stealth communications from her campaign handlers during Wednesday's Presidential Forum carried live on NBC, True Pundit has learned.
While Clinton was fielding questions from NBC's Matt Lauer and the public Wednesday night on live television, a quiet buzz started circulating in New York law enforcement circles about Hillary’s left ear. NYPD sources confirm Clinton was wearing an 'inductive earpiece,' the same technology employed by almost all lead Broadway actors to receive forgotten lines and stealth off-stage cues from directors. The flesh-colored earbud is easily concealed. There are no wires running directly to the ear like you see with the units employed by Secret Service protection detail personnel.
The skin-tone piece Clinton was wearing, however, was somewhat different from the standard issued stealth earpiece and is much different in appearance from a hearing aid. This unit is considered a "micro" earbud which contains all the technology but is a fraction of the size with a very high price tag. In fact, most of the units this size, approximately 3mm or comparable to a small pearl stud earring, are normally issued to law enforcement or corporate security teams, sources said. At a size that small, the earbud is designed to sit inside the opening of the ear canal, almost invisible to anyone. However, the unit does move and shift along with its wearer and at times can slightly pop out of the canal and require a quick readjustment, experts said.
Ironically, the revelation that Clinton was wearing such a unit might have only been recognized because of astute NYPD officers attached to her security detail who are accustomed to seeing the stealth apparatus at stage shows, conventions and security personnel of VIPs and international dignitaries at the United nations and elsewhere in the five boroughs. Likewise, NYPD detectives employ a parallel technology to communicate during undercover Ops.
Based on experts familiar with the technology, the stealth earpiece operates on a bandwidth from 300 Hz to 4KHz. Many such units are powered by SONY. The range of the unit can be unlimited depending on how the back end is set up. Technically, you could receive cues from 100 feet away or from someone sitting in Washington D.C. while you sat in New York City, experts said. The set up and range is flexible based on need and use. The unit does not require Bluetooth to operate via short distances but long range operations would require Bluetooth, which is easily configured.
Story is Developing. We Will update it more as we receive additional details.

An inductive earpiece as described would have the signal at audio frequency rather than at a higher carrier frequency. So that part is plausible.
What makes it a junk news story is that there’s no sourcing. The claim is this is coming from one or more people in the NYPD, but there’s no indication of who.
On top of that, the earpiece claim is absurd. Would Hillary really do an appearance like this with a sneaky earpiece in place? There are cameras doing close shots, she’s got makeup people hovering around her. Seems unlikely to say the least.
If you look at the RealPundit website (which seems to be run by some rambunctious kids out of Philadelphia), you’ll see that they have a page where you can contact them with “News Tips”.
Is it possible someone sent them this rather farfetched story as a “tip” to yank the internet’s chain?
No doubt she will lie and tell us that it is a “new” hearing aid device she recently received and is needed due to normal hearing loss, it is nothing more than the normal hearing aid many people require.
Can you provide a link to that email?
Sorry, should have scrolled down a little.
Maggie, was just about to post the same thing. My son just sent it to me.
It is indeed audio frequency — the range of the sounds it puts into the ear, mostly speech frequencies. But that’s not the frequency of the radio waves, which would be much higher. FM radio for example is broadcast at 100 MHz or so, but the sounds broadcast in that 100 MHz signal in roughly this same 300 Hz - 4 KHz range (actually more like 20 Hz to 20 KHz for music).
This number is either disinformation or, more likely, reporter error.
LOL. Youngsters won’t get that one!
I think it was Huma whispering sweet nothings.
Don’t think so, I wear twin hearing aids, and that is the same principle as a wireless listening device. Real loud noises are painful. You’d be more inclined to reach up and yank them out if they squealed. Never had them buzz, just squeal very loud and painfully. Like getting to mikes to close together squeal.
I like “I think impregnation of baloney sandwiches is the next step to take” even better.
“This is nothing more than a red herring. It’s just a distractor. If Hillary was really wearing a receiver to get info from her team, you would not know about it.”
It slipped out of her ear and we can now see it.
Hillary: Who was on the other end of your earpiece?
Hopefully someone will learn how to intercept the signal. Record and save up anything minor, but once she uses it for something significant, put it all on the internet. (But give her a chance to deny everything first.)
I wonder what event was on her calendar that day....
She'll just cough and run away.
Drudge has it front and center right now.
Or better yet....., "Yes, Mr. Lauer, I did allowed Chris Stevens to be killed in exchange for arms sold to terrorists" or "Yes, Mr. Lauer, I did know that confidential emails went through my personal server but I just don't care about that".
She wouldn't even know she was telling the truth until later.
“I wonder what event was on her calendar that day....”
Good question!

SECRETARY OF STATE HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON REMARKS AT CTBT ARTICLE XIV CONFERENCE
NEW YORK, NY
SEPTEMBER 24, 2009
“If one were prepared, one could probably hijack the signal and substitute your own, such as the theme song from Gilligan’s Island, or maybe a Patrick Stewart Shakespeare soliloquy.”
I was thinking Yoko Ono, but I’m not sure even Hillary deserves that.
