OK, so your nbc.com/A resolving error doesn't really have anything to do
with the nameservers you included in your original post.
It does appear, however, that ns2.netbcp.net (205.173.93.213) is
refusing requests generally for the nbc.com domain:
$ dig nbc.com +buf=4096 +norec @ns2.netbcp.net
; <<>> DiG 9.4.3-P3 <<>> nbc.com +buf=4096 +norec @ns2.netbcp.net

ns1.netbcp.com appears to be doing the same thing.
Not known whether this is something temporary (performing maintenance?),
or something permanent (provider's contract lapsed, but customer never
updated delegations).
In any case, you have enough working authoritative nameservers for the
domain, so it'll continue to resolve for you...

Hello,
I'm getting what appears to be a common "error (unexpected RCODE
REFUSED) resolving" error. My research has lead me to disable IPv6
when starting the named service with "named -4" as it could be
related to IPv6 broken connectivity (of which we been actively
deploying and testing). This has taken away the AAAA log activity
but I still get the error:
Oct 12 16:06:55 prod75-dns1 named[23866]: error (unexpected RCODE
REFUSED) resolving 'nbc.com/A/IN': 205.173.93.213#53
Exploring this more, almost all domains I'm having problems with (as
discovered through dig) is related to this forwarder:
nationalmap.gov. 5M IN NS rdsdns5.ultradns.net.
nationalmap.gov. 5M IN NS rdsdns1.ultradns.net.
nationalmap.gov. 5M IN NS rdsdns2.ultradns.net.
nationalmap.gov. 5M IN NS rdsdns6.ultradns.net.
nationalmap.gov. 5M IN NS rdsdns3.ultradns.net.
nationalmap.gov. 5M IN NS rdsdns4.ultradns.net.
linkedin.com, nbc.com, nationalmap.gov
nbc.com is not hosted on those nameservers:
nbc.com. 86400 IN NS pdns1.ultradns.net.
nbc.com. 86400 IN NS pdns2.ultradns.net.
nbc.com. 86400 IN NS pdns3.ultradns.org.
nbc.com. 86400 IN NS pdns4.ultradns.org.
nbc.com. 86400 IN NS pdns5.ultradns.info.
nbc.com. 86400 IN NS pdns6.ultradns.co.uk.
nbc.com. 86400 IN NS ns1.netbcp.com.
nbc.com. 86400 IN NS ns2.netbcp.net.
Neither is linkedin.com.
I hope you're not trying to use authoritative nameservers as
"forwarders" in the strict BIND sense. If you have full Internet
connectivity, there's really no reason to be forwarding at all.
Configure your root hints and be happy.
Note - I'm also seeing plenty of lame server and EDNS errors.
Those are fairly normal.
