• James O’Keefe Threatens To Release ‘Hundreds Of Hours’ Of Leaked Newsroom Footage Soon.
    30 replies, posted
[QUOTE]Conservative provocateur James O’Keefe III said on Tuesday that he will soon release “hundreds of hours” of unaired footage secreted out of a major news organization. The footage could come as early as Thursday, he told Fox News host Sean Hannity during a radio interview. The footage was provided to him, O’Keefe said, by people inside the network. A Huffington Post reporter, who was also on the radio program, asked if O’Keefe had acquired the footage from camera or set crew members who would have access to it, but he declined to say. Networks record off-air interactions between hosts, reporters and guests, and a crew member sympathetic to O’Keefe’s cause could potentially access a lot of material. After the radio interview was recorded, HuffPost asked if O’Keefe would be releasing footage from multiple newsrooms or just one. “One corporation, multiple newsrooms,” he said. O’Keefe said he’d be releasing the footage “WikiLeaks-style.” In fact, WikiLeaks has several distinct styles. At times, the organization has worked with major media outlets to break stories. In other instances, it has dumped everything it had on the internet at once. In the case of the John Podesta emails, WikiLeaks released new batches day by day. O’Keefe wouldn’t divulge which particular network would be hit, but said it was one President Donald Trump has spent much time talking about recently. “It’s the one he’s always targeting,” O’Keefe said. That would seem to suggest CNN. Trump has been on a tear against the network since it revealed the existence of an allegedly embarrassing dossier that intelligence agencies were investigating.[/QUOTE] [URL="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/james-okeefe-leaks-newsroom-footage_us_58acb6e9e4b04a0b274dddf2"]http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/james-okeefe-leaks-newsroom-footage_us_58acb6e9e4b04a0b274dddf2[/URL] [URL="http://money.cnn.com/2017/02/22/media/james-okeefe-cnn/index.html?iid=hp-stack-dom"]http://money.cnn.com/2017/02/22/media/james-okeefe-cnn/index.html?iid=hp-stack-dom[/URL] [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Editorialized Headline" - Bradyns))[/highlight]
Oh boy.
I can't wait for the shitshow and Pizzagate 2.0
cant wait to not trust a thing he puts up since he's put up plenty of bullshit before
James O'Keefe is the guy who doctors footage and takes snippest of quotes out of context, right? What a fucking hack.
It's unaired, but is it unedited? I bet it's edited.
wikileaks style aka release several unsubstantial pieces of evidence over long periods of time while hyping up your audience
I can't wait for him to validate my perceptions
Omni the heck is up with your thread titles.

My take away of this thread so far is: [quote=Major Media Outlet] According to latest unidentified leaks and sources, Donald Trump will be instituting nation wide martial law some time tomorrow. [/quote] I knew it! Justify this Tudd! [quote=Major Media Figure] According to latest unidentified leaks and sources, I'll be showing you footage that CNN didn't air for one reason or another. [/quote] It's bullshit! Fucking alt-right Pepe news! I don't mean to be a one-issue poster, but come on. The amount of unprincipled skepticism or, "pft it'll be nothing I'm sure," in this thread already is, to me, ridiculously staggering when just a few threads over there's a roaring debate about LGBT rights that was incited by [B][I]another[/B] unsubstantiated memo from the Trump administration.[/I] I'll remind you that at this point, the number of things that have been leaked, versus the number of said leaks that have come to pass, are still at "many" to "zero." At the very least you could wait and see what comes out before dismissing this? I say this of course knowing that people already ignore "those dumb Russian puppets over at Wikileaks," simply because there's a clear agenda to the real material they share, but even that hinges on a sort of ridiculous, "well our guys said it so it's true, their guys said it so it's not." Never mind how ridiculous it seems to me that we're now making news of some potential news that isn't even news yet. The next step will be speculating on what will next be speculated by chief speculators who will be speculating on facts that may come to pass in a speculative world.

Do you know that he's released several videos that were all maliciously edited to be beyond misleading to push his biases forward as if they were fact? We're not dismissing it offhand because it counteracts "the narrative" and we have walls against reality to maintain. We're dismissing it because [B]James O'Keefe is a demonstrable and repeat LIAR.[/B] He has [I]explicitly said[/I] that he will not release the unedited source footage, and that should make you question the validity of his edited tapes pretty fucking hard. Let's say that it turns out he really DOES have something, and he actually proves it. Well, that'll be a surprise, because he's cried wolf so many times I and many others don't believe him about anything anymore. He has only himself to blame if he gets upset that posters in a thread on facepunch dot com laugh away his press release and don't take him seriously until he posts the evidence. Your rant about fake news is ill-aimed when the subject is [B]known to only deal in misleading bullshit[/B].
[QUOTE=Trebgarta;51860955]Are you seriously putting James O'Keefe and Mainstream Media into some sort of equivalence relationship[/QUOTE] That Pewdiepie shits certainly comparable (i know its CNN, im just referring to your general term of "mainstream media).
[QUOTE=Trebgarta;51860955]Are you seriously putting James O'Keefe and Mainstream Media into some sort of equivalence relationship[/QUOTE] it would be a mistake to trust either imo. most mainstream media corps are just as guilty as o'keefe of chopping up and presenting a story in order to push a false narrative
I don't understand why people would trust a liar like this or Trump. But I repeat myself.
He did get that guy arrested on conspiracy to commit assault and the group he infiltrated released the weakest response ever saying, "It was a joke." Not to mention Bob Cramer resigning and James Folley fired for the horrible things they said is still real. But nobody has been really able to explain how those were not real despite the dust well settled.

What we're arguing is that James O’Keefe is a generally unreliable "journalist" with a blatant agenda who has in the past has doctored footage and has gotten innocents fired from their jobs. It's hard to take him seriously when he reports on politics, especially politics in his favor. But sure let's deal in absolutes.

[QUOTE=Tudd;51861251]He did get that guy arrested on conspiracy to commit assault and the group he infiltrated released the weakest response ever saying, "It was a joke."[/QUOTE] Reminder that ACORN organizers went all the way to court before they realized the videos had been misleadingly edited and charges were dropped. [QUOTE=Tudd;51861251]Not to mention Bob Cramer resigning and James Folley fired for the horrible things they said is still real. But nobody has been really able to explain how those were not real despite the dust well settled.[/QUOTE] Them resigning or being fired doesn't mean the videos were completely truthful. They could have been cut loose purely for due to the controversy. Reminder that he was paid by the Trump Foundation to work against Clinton and the DNC. } More topically, I'm going to assume "He was fired/forced to resign that means the allegations are true" doesn't apply to Milo leaving Breitbart.

Wonder where it is
[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;51873128]Wonder where it is[/QUOTE] he already released it, it's such a huge load of fucking nothing that nobody is reporting on it lmao
