Nothing concrete as yet but he always comes up with interesting stuff. This time from The Washington Post:
A woman approached The Post with dramatic — and false — tale about Roy Moore. She appears to be part of undercover sting operation
A woman who falsely claimed to The Washington Post that Roy Moore, the Republican U.S. Senate candidate in Alabama, impregnated her as a teenager appears to work with an organization that uses deceptive tactics to secretly record conversations in an effort to embarrass its targets.
In a series of interviews over two weeks, the woman shared a dramatic story about an alleged sexual relationship with Moore in 1992 that led to an abortion when she was 15. During the interviews, she repeatedly pressed Post reporters to give their opinions on the effects that her claims could have on Moore’s candidacy if she went public.
And her ties to Project Veritas (O'Keefe's organization)
But on Monday morning, Post reporters saw her walking into the New York offices of Project Veritas, an organization that targets the mainstream news media and left-leaning groups. The organization sets up undercover “stings” that involve using false cover stories and covert video recordings meant to expose what the group says is media bias.
The Judge Moore story was initially published in the Washington Post after they printed an editorial endorsing his Democratic oponent. The claim is 40 years old and Judge Moore has had a very long career of public service - I would think that this would have surfaced a long time ago if there was any valaditity to the claim.
The claim was reported by only one news source - the Post - and there has been no subsequent corroboration from other sources. I call bogus - fake news.
Here is the website of Project Veritas and their story on bias at The Washington Post:
BREAKING: Undercover Video Exposes Washington Post’s Hidden Agenda
In newly released undercover video, Washington Post National Security Correspondent Dan Lamothe and Director of Product Joey Marburger speak to the paper’s hidden agenda. Evidently, covering Trump the way they do is good business, even though it’s fake news.
Marburger admits that Trump coverage is important to their success, even if the coverage isn’t always faithful: “It’s hard to get away from him [Trump], and people find it draining, but we think about that. If Trump just disappeared tomorrow, our traffic would drop by thirty percent. So we think about that.”
All the news that's fit to invent. Fake. Their interest is in the money and not journalism. James closes his post with this wonderful line:
Stay tuned because there are more videos to come.
