The rightwing provocateur James O’Keefe may face the music tomorrow.
O’Keefe, who founded and is synonymous with the conservative media outfit Project Veritas, was put on a paid leave while its board of directors is set to meet on Friday to consider his employment status, New York Magazine first reported.
He is a piece of shit, pure and simple
“James has become a power drunk tyrant,” the memo said.
I’m surprised he hasn’t physically harmed anyone.
He’s ruined careers and lives with his crap. The whole organization needs to go down.
What does it mean to be too toxic for Project Veritas?
I’ll take the other side of that prop bet.
True, there’s got to be a reason they’re ditching him besides the fact he’s a fucking asshole.
It’s not like we didn’t already know that he’s a fucking degenerate.
He’s always seemed pretty obviously rapey to me.
You never see him and David miscavige in the same room
He seems to have avoided serious legal challenges by getting probation and slaps on the wrist, so maybe he finally is getting his comeuppance.
Clearly the effects of 'cocaine rage."
How can we miss you unless you leave - asshole.
It looks as though the rest of Project Veritas thinks they can just throw their leader under the bus and maybe that will take the heat off of them. Obviously, O’Keefe deserves nothing better. His entire organization was founded on the principle of distorting the truth and slandering people for political gain so, the fact that his entire staff would turn on him just to avoid trouble themselves does have covey a sense of poetic justice.
That said, I wonder if Project Veritas will even be able to continue to function once its visionary leader has been expunged? I sure hope not.
At first it seemed odd, but I guess that it makes sense that criminal enterprises put serial felons on paid leave.
The board says that he is taking “well-deserved PTO?” Unrepentant terrorists deserve paid time off?? WTF??
Dear Sirs,
I post today on behalf of rank and file in the International Brotherhood of Excreta, Floaters, and Dingleberries. Your inflammatory and insulting comparison of our membership to James O’Keefe constitutes defecation of character.
On the advice of our legal counsel, Tinkler Dookie & Klinger, I demand that TPM Media LLC issue an immediate retraction, and apologize to the hard-working professionals of our movement who bravely face the daily perils of peekaboo, single-ply, and Ty-D-Bol Blue.
My brothers and sisters stand cheek-to-cheek in solidarity to oppose this outrageous crack against our solemn dignity.
Jean Shartstein,
President, Local 219
What would Project Veritas be without its head douchebag? They’re a dishonest right-wing activist shop masquerading (very lightly) as journalists. Maybe this is entirely about their dirty money being mismanaged, the board wants to squeeze more money from the rubes than OKeefe is bringing in right now?
Well, I’d say he bears a striking resemblance to Lee Harvey Oswald 2.0.
I think my favorite thing about O’Keefe is that he once thought he’d use his raw sex appeal to seduce a female reporter on his boat, complete with dildos and condom jars, as part of one of his video stings. Incredibly, she didn’t fall for it.
