He probably thinks you’re annoying too

[Gene Eric]

No doubt Pfizer is behind this.

[rlmorel]

Setting people up who are trying to destroy our country and our liberties is something to support.

And I fully support it. Enthusiastically and wholeheartedly. It isn’t illegal. They deserve zero consideration, as they have no consideration for us, our liberty, and our Constitution.

[boxlunch]

Oh boohoo. Maybe he should play nice with these demons? Just ask nicely for them to tell the truth ? So he’s setting them up, how mean of him. You’d almost think he was trying to get truth out of people who would sell their souls for a nickel

[sauropod]

Bkmk

[TakebackGOP]

They are low level people that he goes after, and nothing except the Andrew Breitbart one did anything.

[bigbob]

Yah, the only way James is coming back is to buy up the corporate name at the bankruptcy auction, maybe. And to pick up some letterhead to use for TP.

[rlmorel]

I gave money to the Project Veritas for the first time last year, and this is why:

O'KEEFE: Hey, Jeff Zucker, are you there? Hey, uh, this is James O'Keefe, uh, we've been listening to your CNN calls for ah, basically two months recording everything, and I just want to ask you a few questions if you have a minute. Do you still feel you're "The Most Trusted Name in News" because I have to say, from what I've been hearing on these phone calls, I don't know about that, I mean, we've got a lot of recordings that indicate you're not really that independent of a journalist.

ZUCKER: Okay, um, thank you for, ah, thank you ah, for ah your comments. Um, so, everybody, in light of that, I think what we'll do is, we'll...we'll set up uh, uh, a new system and we'll uh, we'll be back with you...we'll do the rest of the calls, uh, a little bit later...

At this point, O'Keefe looks right at the camera and makes this hilarious face:

O'KEEFE: We're going to release those recordings today at seven o'clock so stay tuned, it is going to be fun.

ZUCKER: Thanks everybody, have a good day...

O'KEEFE: Yeah, you too. So, um, you heard me just talk to the president of CNN, Jeff Zucker, and inform him that we are going to release a number of recordings today, I uh, unmuted myself into the conference line and they're still on there, they're listening to me right now. Uh, this is being live streamed for those of you still on the call and we recorded for a while and we have clips of various producers talking, the president talking, describing uh, their motives, describing uh, their political philosophy, describing how they don't cover certain things and certain political parties tell them to cover things a certain way, lots of little clips that takes us into the minds and hearts of our people and powers that be that inform us because government is downstream from media. So, we're going to releasing these tape thanks to one of our sources, one of our brave insiders who has given us this information. And um, as you can see, they're still milling about on the call, they're listening to me right now...

SYSTEM SOUNDS OF PARTICIPANTS IMMEDIATELY LEAVING THE CALL: Beep Beep...Beep Beep...Beep Beep...Beep Beep...Beep Beep

Brilliant. Just Brilliant.

There are some people who think James O'Keefe taking down these people is underhanded. It isn't illegal. He didn't force them to brag. They engaged in illegality.

They forced, for their own personal gain, this poisonous crap on us against our will, leveraging a tyrannical government, made scads of money while we lost our lives and livelihoods, and they bragged about it, especially that despicable human stain who had the meltdown.

Screw them. Screw every single last one of them.

And if I ever meet James O'Keefe in person, I will shake his hand and thank him.

[rlmorel]

Jeff Zucker isn’t a low-level person. And neither were some of the other people.

But that isn’t James O’Keefe’s problem. He can only open the door for people to evaluate a situation with information that is withheld by the media and government.

If people, including those in government who are really at fault, choose to do nothing, there is no malediction vile enough that can deservedly be heaped on them.

[Paladin2]

Trump might consider using similar tactics on occasion.

[Widget Jr]

So it now looks like Project Veritas’s top donors were caught off guard by O’Keefe’s removal and are not happy about it.

If that is in fact the case, what did the Board think was going to happen?

[LegendHasIt]

What, Didn’t Pfizer pay them off enough to keep them operating as Controlled Opposition????

[WeaslesRippedMyFlesh]

“We understand and share your frustrations [LIE],” the email reads.

“We all love and respect James [LIE] and hope he returns [LIE]. This is difficult for everyone [LIE].”

[Chode]

The email states that “an independent two-dimensional audit is being arranged” to determine if financial wrong-doing has taken place, and if O’Keefe had broken administrative procedure.

ummmm... something you might have done ahead of time?

[Chad C. Mulligan]

My cup of schadenfreude runneth over! I demanded mine be refunded.

[wildcard_redneck]

"I think James is annoying."

O'Keefe fights. WTF do you do?

[factmart]

As soon as he starts another project with a different name I’m sending $100.

[DesertRhino]

” “We can’t stress how separate the board’s role is from daily operations here at PV. We are still grinding and pursuing stories of great public importance.””

Other than firing O’Keefe.

[StolarStorm]

I don’t understand the governance. Who appoints the board? Who determines their makeup? Would think the founder and the donors would have total control of such.

[Gene Eric]

Thanks for the sharing those details. I totally agree with your POV.
