now project vera and james o'keefe have become famous for hidden camera videos in which they get people to open up in ways they normally wouldn't do if they knew that they were being video recorded now james o'keefe has gotten in trouble for this in the past at the moment he's being sued he's facing a one million dollar lawsuit over the fact that posing as someone else he interviewed a contractor who was allegedly working for the democratic party now james o'keefe he says that this lawsuit is simply about intimidation now it's still on verified but if this video is as it appears it seems that the fake news label will stick to c.n.n. for probably quite a long time ok thanks come up it was in there for us in washington another development three c.n.n. journalists who were on they were trying to draw she related story to resign the network says they didn't follow it standard editorial processes president meanwhile has waded in again accusing c.n.n. of publishing fake news but we did talk to the communications director of the project very tass steven gordon. he's sitting in those meetings h

from james o'keefe and project vera toph's that was van jones who briefly served in the obama administration and is now a commentator for c.n.n. in the clip he says that the russia thing is a nothing burger and now it's important to be clear here we don't exactly know what he's referring to about the russia thing could be the russian investigation could be the allegations about trump the context of the clip is not exactly clear who this leak comes on just in the aftermath of another recent leak from project veritas and jon bon a field an important producer for c.n.n. says the russia story is the polite term is nonsense that was just recently released as well now we here at r t reached out to c.n.n. to ask for their comment and they have not replied that it's important to know that these videos that are coming out are not without controversy james o'keefe is personally facing a million dollar lawsuit at the hands of a contractor he interviewed after he interviewed them posing as someone else and this was a contractor allegedly working with the democratic party so there's a lot of questions th

you know, i wasn't actually going to run, i told james o'keefe, i admire his work, and he gets unfairly tarnished. but he's done a lot of good work over the years. i almost didn't want to run it, until they put out a statement, i thought they were going to fire this poor guy for speaking honestly and truthfully. i was looking and making calls today, in case he got fired to find the poor guy a job. but now that they're not going to fire him, this says a lot about zucker. this identifies what his agenda is. why would time-warner keep an obviously abusively biased leader that's destroying their brand and a witch hunt for the president? >> laura: i don't see how any of this really makes sense. i think cnn has good reporters. i think there are people who want to do a good job. >> who? >> laura: i don't want to tar the whole place. well, let me work on thinking of the list by the end of the segment. i'll come up with it. >> okay, glad they top the mind to you. well they have good people, i didn't think of one now, but i'll tell you later. >> laura: i've always actually liked jake tapper and i

well james o'keefe who is the one who set out to record this conversation is a very controversial figure he's got himself in trouble a couple of times by doing these these hidden camera. ambush interviews with that said if the information is true the american people have the right to know it. what can be taken away from the footage was there any new information for you when you actually watched it. no frankly frankly i didn't think there was any new information like i said so many of us formerly in the american intelligence community i'm talking about my colleagues in the the veteran intelligence professionals for sanity group have been saying both in television and radio interviews and in writing that we're just not seeing any evidence of collusion between president trump and the russian government or russian hackers or any russians at all and i think what's going to end up happening and i like to go on record early saying this i think that by the time director mueller's investigation is done i think multiple people will probably be facing felony charges but i'm going to say that none o

now to james o'keefe who made this sort of sting video on c.n.n. always seems to run into this issue and some on the left face the same accusations that you have to decide whether you're a journalist or you're an operative if you're reporting on events with a very clear bias like he is or some other people in the business it might endure you to your base but you're never going to be trusted or heard that same sort of thing with the president it's like you're never going to be trusted or heard outside of your particular political least so isn't it a pretty momentous shift from what we were always taught that good journalism is is at mete out good journalism tried to try to reach as many readers or consumers as possible and that challenging your reader or their the viewer is the right thing to do yeah absolutely i mean i think but i don't i don't agree with. doing the kind of work that i do i'm very opinionated nowhere right and i grew up actively disbelieving in the traditional dust definition of objectivity everybody's always taught in journalism s

so james o'keefe has struck again on his thirty third birthday no less and the second undercover video from project veritas in just as many days o'keefe continues his attack on c.n.n. obsessed with russia this time however it's c.n.n. rock star van jones who found himself the victim of mr o'keefe kind of sort of not really journalistic endeavors james if you only go after democrats who are not a journalist or an operative it's hard to hear someone del rosario has the latest on this developing story. is. been one public relations crisis after another this week for c.n.n. first the network retracted a story that tried to draw a connection between a donald trump ally and an investigation into russian funds the story had one anonymous source and in the aftermath three reporters resigned and now this on the air host and political commentator van jones caught project veritas undercover camera saying this what do you think's going to happen this week you know richard. didn't. really. deal with. it. and jones you got me i have no idea what is a nothing burger but the video release comes less t

and tonight a third video by james o'keefe project vera tosh featuring c.n.n. president jeff zucker himself and the president goes on a tear on twitter this time targeting the old stuff and that's in d.c. this morning joe and mosul is on the verge of liberation by the u.s. led coalition after months of fighting but at what cost to the city military and thinking for ed schultz tonight reporting from washington d.c. you're watching r t america. good evening we begin tonight with yet another of those so-called c.n.n. tapes for three straight days now conservative activist james o'keefe has been a thorn in c.n.n. side on tuesday a video showed a producer from c.n.n. dismissing the coverage of russia on the network as nothing but a push for ratings and then on wednesday a second video showed c.n.n. host van jones referring to the very same coverage as a nothing burger now a third video showing c.n.n. president jeff zucker himself fleeing from o'keefe who is seen asking about the coverage of russia artie's on your part until has the latest if took a break from releas

look what happened when james o'keefe actually tracked down zucker and asked him about cnn's abusiverage. by these way, fox cannot independently verify the footage, but you can see it yourself. >> james o'keefe, how are you? can you comment about the russia story? >> jeff, i'll invite you on the program. come on my show. we'll talk about your network and the things said on your network. by the way, they're the lowest rated network. they have a crisis and credibility, cnn and their elitist president, are they ever going to put aside their petty differences? it now seems personal on their part and maybe start covering him fairly. we report. we'll let you decide, fair and balanced. coming up, we need your help. and this is an important question of the day, that's next. i love kiwis. i've always had that issue with the seeds getting under my denture. super poligrip free. it creates a seal of the dentures in my mouth. just a few dabs is clinically proven to seal out more food particles. try super poligrip free. ♪ does it look like i'm done?yet? shouldn't you be at work?

all that appears to just be the beginning of the network's problems because today james o'keefe they came out with a new video that apparently shows a cnn producing admitting the network's massive ante agenda. now, fox news has not been able to independently verify the content of the video, but here are some of the key parts, take a look. >> why cnn constantly, like, russia this, russia that? >> because it's ratings. >> because it's ratings? our ratings are incredible right now. my boss yesterday we were having a discussion he's like i just want you to know what we're up against. just to give you some context the president pulled out of the climate accord and for a day and a half we covered the climate accord and ceo of cnn said inof our internal meeting, good job covering the climate accord. but we're done with it, let's get back to russia. >> the ceo? >> yeah. >> gosh. >> eve thann climate accord. b >> i think that there are a lot of, like, liberal cnn viewers who want to see the president really get scrutinized and i think if we would have behaved that way with president obama and

challenged in this book for this is mr suckers resins on thirty to sixty fourth street in new york city james o'keefe are you going to comment about russia story. ok that was pretty cowardly there wasn't a party bird has published a clip a few days ago showing a c.n.n. producer admitting that russia stories are about chasing ratings and then a number one feature which is contributors describing russia coverage as nothing but today's cross talk show get stuck into that later on this channel. people can talk about it in these terms of oh it's this big nothing it's not a big nothing and you know why van jones said what stupid thing he said you know you'll have to ask him again all the. to base eight here on your air is just stupid ok that's the explanation there is no journalism in the leftist media there is no journalism in the mainstream media which is the same thing it's the left this media this from the beginning this rush in nonsense has been just that nonsense and c n n n m s n b c so a spike in their ratings immediately so they're keeping it going with the project their video is the zapruder film

being challenged or this is mr suckers resins on thirty to sixty fourth street in new york city james o'keefe you. are about to rush a story. ok that was pretty cowardly there wasn't a project published a clip a number of days ago showing a c.n.n. producer admitting russia stories are about chasing ratings and then another featuring one of the channel's computers describing russia coverage as a quote nothing burger today's cross-talk takes a bite out of that later on r.t. people can talk about it in these terms of oh it's this big nothing it's not a big nothing and you know why when jones said what stupid thing he said you know you'll have to ask him again oh yeah basically if you're on your air is just stupid ok that's the explanation there is no journalism in the leftist media there is no journalism in the mainstream media which is the same thing it's the leftist media this from the beginning this russian nonsense has been just that nonsense and c.n.n. an m s n b c so a spike in their ratings immediately so they're keeping it going with the project very tight as video is does approve her fi

project there it ass and the guy behind it james o'keefe he's made a name for himself he shoots these candid recordings usually under cover where people are much more on this than they would be in front of the camera and he said you know front of the democratic party in the united states he's targeted them a number of times and that has landed him in trouble because one company has sued him and now faces a million dollars lawsuit after infiltrating in alleged democratic consulting for posing as someone else and secretly secretly recording them he says that that is an intimidation tactic that they're trying to intimidate him and we've again we've contacted them trying to. verify the story but this as i said if this is true it certainly you know would certainly huge let's see how c.n.n. wriggles out of this one because if it doesn't than that very very think new moniker that deserved itself is going to stick meanwhile in another development three c.n.n. journalists who worked on another truck did russia related story to resign the network saying they didn't follow its standard editorial

now project veritas founder james o'keefe has become famous for hidden camera videos in which he gets people to open up in ways that they usually wouldn't do now this has gotten him in trouble in the past he's currently facing a one million dollar lawsuit for a video in which he pretended to be someone else posed as someone else and interviewed people working for a for a contracting firm that was allegedly working for the democratic party now o'keefe says this lawsuit is simply intimidation now if things are as they appear in this video it seems that the fake news label will be on c.n.n. back for quite a long time and i've not been bringing this up today but what we know about the story so far thanks callup well in another development three c.n.n. journalists who worked on a non rick truck to russia related story have had to resign the network sais they didn't follow its standard editorial process is donald trump has reacted to the us once again accusing c.n.n. of publishing fake news. i'm happy to save the we've got live on the program nod they communications director for project ste
