remember james o'keefe of project veritas, as the guy who made the video where he dressed up like a pimp and did the sting video on a.c.o.r.n. early in the obama administration. he also went into senator mary landrieu's office in new orleans under false pretenses and wound up being charged with a crime in that situation to try to do a sting video. he has done this and made a career out of it. and i think what you saw here was a situation where it looked presumably like a good opportunity to try and sting my "washington post" colleagues, but the underlying problematic premise with what they tried to do is it assumed that my colleagues and "the washington post" journalists, cnn journalists, aren't careful, which we are. i thought our colleague chris cillizza had a great comment on this where he said, look, this is what james o'keefe and project veritas and others who do the same thing don't understand about big news gathering organizations. yes, occasionally things do slip through the cracks, but we're out there gathering information, getting tips, trying to confirm that information. that'

project veritas' founder, james o'keefe, refused to answer questions about whether he was working with roy moore's campaign or other republican strategists in orderer to discredit media reporting on roy moore. on monday, roy moore spoke publicly for the first time in two weeks, once again claiming he did not know any of the women who have accused him. meanwhile, one of his campaign coordinators physically attacked a cameraman outside a campaign rally in alabama on monday night before moore arrived. this all comes as president trump is now attempting to claim that the infamous 2005 "access hollywood" tape in which he brags about sexually assaulting women is fake. this is a clip of the tape. amy: after the tape first resurfaced during the 2016 presidential election, president trump did not dispute the tape's authenticity but instead said his words were locker room talk. his words were locker room talk. but now he is claiming the tape is fake. this is "access hollywood" host natalie morales responding to the news reports about trump's claims on monday. >> we wanted to clear something up t

so this is what project veritas has done. in the beginning when they first came out most famously for taking down acorn, which is what breitbart did back in the day, and the breitbart of 2009 is very different than the breitbart of today. i don't think andrew breitbart, the original founder, would be proud of what steve bannon's doing here, but they've since been discredited though on a lot of these operations. as candidates, we used to think these people were heroes. they're taking on left wing media and bias. since then, we've seen james o'keefe and his organization engage in some pretty unscrupulous entrapment-type sting operationings that have been edited in a very dishonest way to get the ruld they want and they raise money off it. i believe he made $300,000 last year he was paid to run this organization. he's already running a fund-raising operation right now off of what happened with the "washington post." so he seems to think this was wonderful, that they got "the washington post." in what world are you living in? bec

refusing to verify certain accounts that of wiki leaks editor julian assange for example or project veritas founder james o'keefe both journalists with anti establishment views twitter didn't answer artie's request for more information regarding its policy review in recent months twitter has faced mounting criticism for failing to combat it. and hate speech it's not clear how making itself the arbiter of right and wrong with a seal of approval is going to fix that problem boyko r t london and us republican party activist john griffin told us why he sees the move was problematic. so the idea of you know firing twitter accounts on the basis of hate is is more to me of a of a symbolic gesture towards preventing dialogue leads leads to more hateful discourse i think that what's being done is being done primarily because of top down political pressure to try to centrally silence some discussion but the the accounts that have been that have been blocked for hate speech frankly i don't think anyone has a problem with blocking them but the idea that this could create been to something where one sid

yesterday, post reporters found jamie phillips going to new york offices project veritas, the organization decided to break the story. an interesting journalistic twist here is that the post had to decide to break it's off the record agreement with this woman because they say the editor says this was a scheme to deceive and embarrass us and if you like, then off the record agreement no longer holds. >> julie: that's a really good point. when you have an interview off the record, never quite frankly can i remember a news organization going back on that. off the record means off the record. this is definitely playing a whole new role in the off the record scenario with the media. this jamie phillips woman basically not only said that wymore had been guilty of sexual misconduct with her, but that he in fact impregnated her at age 15 and forced her to have an abortion. it wasn't like she tried to tell some weak story. she went all the way with this and to believe that the post would fall for it is a bit surprising. >> to believe the post would fall for it doesn't betray much understanding of h

the post learned the woman is connected to project veritas, an organization that targets democratic groups the post says that woman's story is false. they say they discovered inconsistencies and during interviews the woman repeatedly asked the reporter to guarantee her intoer would lose the special election if the paper reported her story. >>> quickly want to he will you about a story making national headlines out of north carolina right now a huge search under way for a toddler, a three-year-old girl, this one right here, she is terribly cute, first responders have been looking on the ground and in the air for this little one. her name is mariah woods, she wears brace toss help her walk. grandmother says that she is shy with strangers they don't think she would have gone with anyone. investigators have asked everyone to check their areas and homes and yards. officers do think she was abducted. there is a huge manhunt underway. i have been looking for updates, so far that search continues. reggie? >>> new this morning, only 30% of california ninth graders are expected to earn a bachelor's

and monday morning, reporters spotted phillips walking into the new york city offices of "project veritashe group is run by long-time activist james o'keefe and has a history of targeting the news media and democratic organizations, using undercover video. meanwhile, roy moore himself took aim at the media last night. he faces multiple claims of approaching or molesting teenage girls, but he's denied any wrongdoing. >> they're trying to hide the true issues. it's no different than when the "washington post" brought out the russian investigation at a time when president trump is trying to get his agenda passed. >> woodruff: outside the venue, several moore campaign staffers scuffled with a fox news camera crew. meanwhile, on twitter yesterday, president trump called for a contest. he said it would decide "which of the networks, plus cnn and not including fox, is the most dishonest, corrupt and/or distorted in its political coverage." the winner, said mr. trump, will receive the "fake news trophy." for a closer look, we're joined by margaret sullivan, media columnist at the "washington post

. >> and then the second part of this is the connection to project veritas. james o'keefe is the one who runs that. you get folks to go in undercover, hidden camera, they talk to media, major media figures and try to get them to show bias or something like that. what do you know about the potential connection? >> james o'keefe has been involved with this and he has had some success. you might say that one of his undercover sting operations basically crippled a.c.o.r.n. for good. that's one of the things that i'm certainly mindful of and other journalists are as well that while we have to feel good about sniffing this one out, there are some other examples recently of journalists, including your own rachel maddow sniffing out a fraudulent document that somebody tried to dupe her in to airing. we all still need to be on alert because i think people will continue to try to do something like this. >> thank you for your time. appreciate it. bringing back now the pam, veteran of martin o'malley's 2016 presidential campaign. talk about this alabama senate race for a
