Most chilling to me here is that Project Veritas is in the middle of a defamation lawsuit with The New York Times and the FBI leaked Veritas' privileged attorney communications to that very same party.
The Government colluding with private industry to subvert its own legal processes looks exactly like that dirty f-word that the NYT's main audience likes to casually throw around.
- molyss 5y agoI couldn’t find any info about that leak of veritas’ privileged info. Any sources? I looked at the NYT’s article and everything seemed to come from veritas themselves…
- TeeMassive 5y agoThe NYT published an article based on their private legal information. They were also tipped off about the raid. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10193997/Lawyer-representing-Project-Veritas-boss-James-OKeefe-suggests-feds-leaked-legal-memos.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10193997/Lawyer-rep...
- cronix 5y ago> The documents, a series of memos written by the group’s lawyer, detail ways for Project Veritas sting operations — which typically diverge from standard journalistic practice by employing people who mask their real identities or create fake ones to infiltrate target organizations — to avoid breaking federal statutes such as the law against lying to government officials. It goes on, but they have PV's privileged communications. How else can they make those comments?

- TeeMassive 5y agoThis is so ridiculous. There is nothing wrong in asking lawyers on how not to stay within the law.
