And of course, he's on to Veritas and Outkick, but he talks about morality and integrity.

Jesus Lord. NC's an inch away from going full 8kun.

Veritas is the last bastion of investigative journalism

but its against the left so you have to try to discredit.

Cause video's of PPhood talking about selling baby parts is faked caused they edited the video to make them say they were selling baby parts, lol. That was some ### good splicing on their part.

It started that way.

I originally had a ton of respect for James and what he did. Then he started chasing some really, really flimsy theories and got embarrassed many times for it.

His work on unions and ACORN were invaluable. But his current path is not respectable.

To put it mildly.

And I thought Michael Moore distorted and contorted things for the left. Moor's an absolute paragon of virtue compared to O'Keefe.

LOfucking L, that is far and away the stupidest thing I have read here in months, and that is against some stiff competition. You do not know dick about journalism.

Again, back in the day, post-ACORN but pre-Trump,

James was doing some solid undercover reporting. And, he did provide receipts. He'd release the full, unedited footage of their work. But, it was when he was operating by his original premise -- expose hypocrisy by holding the other side to their own standards (Alinsky's Rule 4 -- James was a big fan of the Rules for Radicals). He didn't need to do any special editing to make his point.

But then I suspect the donors' appetite changed, and they wanted more MAGA-ish investigations, and that is when things really started to go downhill. That, and the boat "incident" (I always held that James' achilles heel was his own penchant for theatrics, and a bit of immaturity that didn't quite go away as he got older).

His "COVID hoax" investigations were the final straw for me.

His list of donors is pretty intriguing. It's pretty obvious he basically turned into a character-assassin-for hire like National Enquirer did...just under the fascade of actual journalism, whereas Enquirer was fishwrap that mostly did catch-and-kill and didn't really have enough journalistic heft to really swing a big axe in terms of character assassination.

One of the many lovely side effects of giving every Tom, Joe, and Karen a platform. Some really grotesque stuff is going to come shambling off it.

If you want some interesting, early O'Keefe understandings


May 19, 2022, 2:14 PM

into how he operates, here is a conversation I had with him back in the day. (Cue T3's head exploding that, gasp, I used to know conservative folkheroes).

call it, was getting Lucky Charms banned from the dining hall over its racist stereotypes of the Irish.
