It's Project Veritas so it's gotta be true.

They're more accurate than WaPo or NYT. One time he had to pay out because someone on video played along and went to the cops right after. Everything else has been gold. Claims of "heavily edited film" has never been proven.

No, he and the other brainwashed fools believe it
I appreciate that you would really like to join the ranks of the 'brain washed fools' but have grown to understand that you can never approach closer than half way. Yu seem to have accomplished the 'fool' part but to go all the way requires a brain. Whoops, it's there where you have a major deficiency. Sorry. You just do not have what it takes to join this particular society. Suggestion is you just remain a Leftist leaning fool.

So... Because it's the Project Veritas... What people say themselves on camera doesn't matter and isn't true?

Well, Project Veritas does have a track record of editing to give the impression the person said or meant something different than what you see. And I watched the first 30 seconds of the video and you couldn't tell if the person meant what it appeared on the surface, so I didn't continue watching. I mean, if the point is to communicate what something thinks and you can't tell from watching the video what someone thinks then what's the point?

Watch this. You wrote "What people say themselves on camera doesn't matter and isn't true?" You clearly mean to say that you think what people say themselves on camera does matter and is true. But I'm going to report what you said but twist it by leaving off the question mark. Here's what we're left with:

Mnteer said "What people say themselves on camera doesn't matter and isn't true."

There, so now we can conclude that's what you believe, right? So no matter what that guy says on camera, you think it doesn't matter. That means any video Project Veritas reports is pointless in your view. Right? After all, it's what you just said.

I know but they're cut here and there so you can't be sure what the speaker actually means.

Mole: Would it be fair to question the intellect of the American voter?

CNN Producer: Oh no. They're stupid as ****.

No cut scenes.

Do you have evidence to back up this claim? PP is the only one who has said this, and hasn't backed it up.

Forget the story below or anything else you could find with some checking for a minute. Ask yourself a question. If the tapes this guy releases really were as incriminating as he says they are, why would he not just release the entire tape? What fathomable reason could he have for releasing bits and pieces?

If you have ears on your head why not just listen to the words they say?

Do you ask the same of CNN?

I don't know what you mean. I don't watch CNN at this point. I don't have cable. And I look at cnn.com less and less because when I do it's sometimes it's promotion of CNN TV shows masquerading as news, as if what Anthony Bourdain thinks about something should a considered a news item. But as far as flinging BS (in the sense of "fake news" I mean) I don't think CNN is bad at all in comparison to all the media in general. I certainly don't think CNN is as bad as Fox News, which has made an industry out of BSing.

I mean that CNN has been busted selectively editing to mislead the American public. Including this week.

Just shut up. For goodness sake that is one of the dumbest posts you have ever made and you have made a life out of dumb posts.

Fakenews = they were busted on a sting attempt? mmmmkay.
In 2011 Blaze, the rightwing outlet founded by Glenn Beck, investigated O’Keefe’s treatment of National Public Radio and concluded that the editing of a secretly filmed video seemed “designed to intentionally lie or mislead about the material being presented”.

Reading is good for you

CNN is so corrupt; why would anyone have any faith in their 'standing behind' anything? If what they report is proven to be untrue then they move on to the next 'headline grabber' which, most likely, will also be shown to have NO merit.
