Project Veritas is in no way a reliable source on political issues. Both it and its founder have a long record of being exposed committing fraud.

I understand you're trying to do character assassination. Thankfully, we have actual videos of google insiders. I also trust my own eyes, I see which political side gets banned en masse by Google, Twitter, FB and other large Silicon Valley companies. Are you going to deny this too?

  Ooh, I think I know. Is ISIS the political party of which you speak?

  Can you provide a different citation than a publication known to generate fabricated claims bolstered by fabricated evidence? (I'm serious and taking you in good faith here for the record.)

    Can you even name a publication that has not fabricated stuff? I'm not aware of any.

      That's not my responsibity; I'm not making any claims.

Project Veritas has a long record of collecting large sums in judgement against those who make such libelous accusations without proof.

  I think you have that backwards. Okeefe has paid 100k in damages to an ACORN employee, for libel.

    One case, poorly phrased, is hardly a "long list".

      More than zero, which is the number of libel cases that O'keefe as won and gotten a payout from. (this is opposed to a number which he hasn't lost, because plaintiffs didn't win, but he was the defendant. But these didn't give him any payout)

  I couldn't find any lawsuits they've won, just them getting lawsuits against them dismissed. And information about James O'Keefe pleading guilty to breaking into a Senator's office.
