O’Keefe: More Controversial NPR Videos to Come
Newsmax ^ | 3/9/2011 | David A. Patten

Posted on 03/09/2011 12:23:17 PM PST by chickadee

There’s more video where that came from, says James O’Keefe, the muckraking activist behind TheProjectVeritas.org. The controversial video-sting impresario tells Newsmax that he’s prepared to release yet more embarrassing revelations about NPR, but first he wants to gauge NPR’s reaction to the bomb he dropped Tuesday.

In an exclusive Newsmax interview, O’Keefe says he’s waiting to see whether NPR comes clean “about what is going on” before he doles out more video.

I use to love attending a business meeting where, every once in awhile, some guy would try and snow everyone. I would just sit back and listen to his/her BS and let them dig a hole. Then when the time was right, hit them with the truth.

His technique is interesting and engrossing. It’s nice to see young people who are conservative and engaged. Kudos to Mr. O’Keefe.

I bet the use of the term ‘journalist’, in reference to O’Keefe, makes the Left’s teeth grind............

Hey, the MSM needs to be reminded that this is how the vaunted Mike Wallace of 60 Minutes got his start.

Both Schillers represent the thinking of NPR, including the board.
It would be lovely if O’Keefe has video of board members spouting the same elitist rhetoric, just lovely.
I wonder how many board members are sweating right now?

The Schillers are very,very sorry............they got caught.

** He should get a Pulitzer Prize............. **


I think so. I am surprised to see Newsmax use the term “muckraking activist” as a descriptive for Mr. O’Keefe. I thought Newsmax was on “our” side (wink wink).

“muckraking” is the correct term:

“What a place for a snark” the Bellman cried,
As he landed his crew with care,
Supporting each man on the tip of the tide,
By a finger entwined in his hair.
“What a place for a snark, I have said it twice
That alone should encourage the crew.”
“What a place for a snark, I have said it thrice.
What I tell you three times is true.”

Lewis Carroll (The Hunting of the Snark)

Pulitzer prize = Deserved
Exposing the Nobel Peace prize as the farce that it is = Priceless
(Hey.... how ‘bout THAT for a project?)
