Conservative provocateur targets CNN with secret recordings
|
 [CNN] Conservative provocateur James O'Keefe is setting his sights on CNN.
O'Keefe said in a telephone interview with CNN on Wednesday that he has "a few hundred hours" of "secretly recorded material" from inside the network. "We're calling it CNN Leaks," he said, drawing inspiration from WikiLeaks' document dumps.
He said "part one" would be published Thursday at about 10 a.m. ET. "This is all legally recorded information," he said, declining to be more specific.
Asked why CNN is one of his targets, he said, "My audience, the American people, are deeply upset at the media." He cited President Trump's critiques of "fake news."
"We think our media needs to be held to account, and CNN is kind of the leader of that. CNN has a very important role as an arbiter of news," he said.
Beyond just CNN, "the media is a huge target of mine right now," O'Keefe said.
"We have a dozen investigations going on, which is one of the reasons I don't have time to go through hundreds of hours of tape," he added.
So the "raw information" will be posted, calling to mind WikiLeaks' dumps of stolen emails from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta last fall.
Update at 10:30 a.m.: The Project Veritas leaks page is here. They're asking for help transcribing the tapes, but there seems to be a glitch in the upload. The twitter feed about it is here.
Update #2 at 1:48: A better Veritas leaks page is here. He has tapes going back to 2009 -- talk about patience! |
