What do you think of Project Veritas, really?

This is the sting that made their name:


https://www.projectveritas.com/investigation/acorn/



Since then, it's been revealed they're not above selectively editing their videos.



I'm not sure I trust them entirely. On the other hand, you get the occasional sound bite that no amount of context could justify.



What I get from this, is that the media industry is a VERY dirty business, and O'Keefe is probably as dirty as any of them.


This is worrysome, since ideally, you want the people you side with to police their own at best. Or you want an unbiased watchdog group with the integrity, clout, and connections to keep everyone honest, at worst.


Seems we have neither of those.

I feel like one can't run their mouth about Veritas and then fully trust places like CNN or MSNBC, that is a fact Jack.

I feel Veritas does good work. Of course be skeptical of it all, but still it is not wise to dismiss it outright.

Of course Veritas is about a billion times more credible than CNN and MSNBC but then, that's not really sayin' much is it? LOL.

No, but really, the people who are a part of Veritas are actual heroes. thumb up

So they tried to plant a story in a newspaper but got found out. Edited videos in order to deceive people and got found out. Broke into a politicians office and got caught and arrested. Tried to seduce a TV reporter with the hope of filming it.

That O'Keefe guy doesn't exactly do himself any favours, does he?

nope, but trumpers choose to forget all that "fake news", because their feelings matter a lot

His ethics are non existent.


That doesn't change the fact there's no way he could make up some of the things people have said, like in that Acorn example. "Yeah, tell those kiddies being trafficked to keep their mouths shut."

@surt I'm sure you'll start a thread about it. In the meantime let's try and keep one thread on topic for at least 1 page.

I don't need to start a thread nobody has been sad enough to disagree. I won't be starting a "water is wet"thread either

And given your lack of consistency in calling out off topic posts my advice is: dont

Kids just say the word we will make this about your hypocrisy. Or we can move on

Some advice if you aren't hypocrites: move on

Calling it out in literally every single thread would take a lot of time. Maybe you could do it on my behalf seeing as you're here more than me.

Thanks.

Lol. That excuse makes more sense than lying and claiming to never see it

"The other side". Lol. I don't watch CNN or MSNBC and only know about the things Project Veritas have done by reading about them to reply to this thread

In your mind I have sides when it comes to them.
