Private independent reporter Michael Tracey told System Update’s Glenn Greenwald what he had discovered at Harris’s Univision town hall in Las Vegas. The event was scripted and choreographed and went even further. Reporters were not allowed in the debate room; they watched a feed in a separate room. They couldn’t interview attendees, although Tracey managed to speak to some.
Harris name-dropped former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, a Bush appointee, as endorsing her. He had to regian after two years, about 14 years ago.
According to Univision’s Director of Corporate Communications, Anna Negron, Latino voters from other states were flown into Vegas for the event. [There are a lot of Latinos in Vegas they could have invited.]
One group of attendees asked the questions, and another group sat watching. Tracey said the event was built on false circumstances with carefully selected participants.

The event was billed as undecided voters. Tracey was able to speak with some of the people who asked questions, the undecided voters, only to find out they were not undecided, but were Harris supporters.
“I already knew I was going to go for Kamala before the event, and now that just kind of solidified it…, one attendee said. “Part of the reason I wanted to go was just to fully support her.”
According to Tracey, the group that sat watching, not asking questions, came from “Fans on Cue.”
“Fans on Cue” is exactly what it sounds like.
The event was supposed to be for undecided voters, and the video was made to look like undecided voters attended and who decided to vote for her after her performance.
As we wrote earlier, she didn’t even do very well.
NEW: @MTracey investigated Univision’s “town hall” and found half of the audience was flown in at the network’s expense, while the other half was brought in by a rent-an-audience company called FansOnQ.
