Conservative provocateur targets CNN with secret recordings
Source: CNN
O'Keefe said in a telephone interview with CNN on Wednesday that he has "a few hundred hours" of "secretly recorded material" from inside the network. "We're calling it CNN Leaks," he said, drawing inspiration from WikiLeaks' document dumps.
He said "part one" would be published Thursday at about 10 a.m. ET. "This is all legally recorded information," he said, declining to be more specific.
O'Keefe, who uses undercover stings to trap his targets, has a reputation for shady tactics and exaggerated statements.

He has already shown himself to be a flashy dresser.

(47,491 posts)I am amazed that he is still at his deceptive games. I would have thought by now, he would have gotten a real job.
He is the male equivalent of Sarah PayMe. Just when you think they are seeing the light, that their 15 minutes are over, they show up AGAIN. This clown was the one who dressed in what he thought was pimp clothing. He looked ridiculous. I thought then, and still think, he is a brick short of a load. He is a homely dude, also, hard not to spot him when he shows up anywhere.

(47,491 posts)certainly sums him up. That pimp outfit looked like a Halloween costume and his behavior in his videos look like he's filming a "You're on Candid Camera" episode. I agree, there is something wrong with the guy.

And in the above case, the dripping irony (given what is going on now) was this -
Mr. OKeefe has said they were in the office because of reports that Ms. Landrieus constituents had trouble reaching her office during the health care debate, though a spokesman for the senator said that her voice mail and that of several other senators were jammed at the time by an unusually high volume of calls.

(9,287 posts)"Much of the funding for Project Veritas ( his pet project) comes from anonymous donations through Donors Trust, a conservative, American nonprofit donor-advised fund, which according to its promotional materials, says that it will "keep your charitable giving private, especially gifts funding sensitive or controversial issues."Notable donors include the Trump Foundation, which, in May 2015, donated $10,000.[30][31]
Plus Brietbart ties.
So he is funded by anonymous sources and Trump. Any Russian donors in that organization?- we will never know because he provides a covert arrangement.
Attack the press in the attempted nazification of the USA. Resist this creature!!!!!!
