Just to be clear, I am not saying that "I always knew O'Keefe was a cuck". I am saying that he appears to be drunk on glory from his previous big hits (Planned Parenthood & Election fraud videos) and has started putting personal fame before political goals.

Many a genius in this world has been ruined by his complacency and arrogance following a huge success. It would be a pity for O'Keefe to join that club.

The moment Okeefe uttered "2009" a collective sigh of relief went throughout CNN headquarters.

edit; props to libertas and heavy for getting some shout outs.

He's OK in my book.

I can see what you're saying, but the truth of the matter is that people like O'Keefe and Assange are simply not very good marketers and persuaders, and they run fairly bare bones operations that don't have much funding.

Would you expect an engineer to be good at sales? Would you expect a salesman to be good at engineering?

Would you expect a sniper to be good with C4? Would you expect a communications expert to be able to lead a raid?

No. Yet many expect these new, modern media figures to be perfect at everything, despite the fact that they don't have the million or billion dollar budgets and huge staffs that the mainstream media or even the Trump team have.

It's just not going to happen. You can't expect the "new media" to operate exactly like the old, establishment media.

Trump is able to play the media because he has dozens of advisors, decades of experience, and huge capital. Project Veritas and Wikileaks have none of that.

Just the fact that O'Keefe can send media behemoths like CNN scurrying for cover and Wikileaks can affect politics on a global (or even just national) level are quite frankly amazing.

I'm not saying that they're above criticism, but you guys have to give them a little bit of a break.

O'Keefe gave us footage inside CNN, inside the DNC, and inside "Disrupt J20", all within a period of about six months. It may not all have been as explosive as our wildest dreams had hoped for, but it's still a pretty significant contribution.

When is the next batch coming up then?

I always remember this as CNN's proudest moment. It wasn't political at all. It just showed how easy it was to make them look like a bunch of idiots. Other media outlets bought into it as well:

Falcon Heene remains one of my personal heroes after this.

And remember that Trump comes in part from Media. Part of why he is so good at yanking their chain is because he comes from that world.
