According to The Daily Wire O’Keefe crashed a CNN daily call on Tuesday and “revealed that he allegedly has months of recordings from the daily call that cover a multitude of issues.”
O’Keefe said in his periscope video:
“Hey Jeff Zucker, are you there?” O’Keefe says. “Hey, this is James O’Keefe. We’ve been listening to your CNN calls for basically two months, recording everything. Just wanted to ask you some questions if you have a minute. Do you still feel you’re the most trusted name in news, because I have to say from what I’ve been hearing on these phone calls, I don’t know about that and we got a lot of recordings that indicate that you’re not really that independent of a journalist.”
Zucker seemed a bit taken aback and ended the call quickly telling James, “thank you for your comment. So, everybody, I think in light of that, we’ll set up a new system, and we’ll be back with you, we’ll do the rest of the call later”
O’Keefe has teased the release throughout the day, even quoting Noam Chomsky on how CNN “Manufactures Consent”
Chomsky accurately described the establishment media “as effective and powerful ideological institutions that carry out a system-supportive propaganda function, by reliance on market forces, internalized assumptions, and self-censorship and without overt coercion.” @tomzellerjr https://t.co/fOSxNfgmKo

About Project Veritas
Project Veritas is well known for their undercover investigative journalism, exposing Disrupt J20, Antifa, and Planned Parenthood. Project Veritas has been investigating CNN as the “American Pravda” since 2017. O’Keefe and his team have also been investigating the unfolding allegations of election fraud and irregularity in connection with the 2020 Presidential race.
CNN’s already questionable track record has been harmed by several scandals leading up to and following the 2020 Election. Earlier this month New York Times Columnist Tom Friedman urged Democrats to short circuit Georgia’s runoff election by moving there ‘temporarily’ on CNN’s Chris Cuomo’s show. The release is set for this evening at 7PM EST, and we will follow with additional reports.
