i realize you dont follow them, thats why i used really simple numbers to illustrate info you dont have.

10% =/= 100%

10% isn't similar to 100%. 10% is more similar to 0% than it is to 100% by an order of magnitude.

most of CNN's daily coverage is live. zero percent of veritas's is.

Cnn lies, just differently.

that's fair. i'd appreciate you not passive-aggressively accuse me of things just because i'm skeptical of info that is not linked though. especially when the 1 example given does not align well with the accusations against them.

i'm still just "assuming" what you write to be true for the most part though. (which i'm somewhat ok with atm, none of this really seemed like "news" to me)

i will always be passive aggressive when someone willingly wades into waters ignorant of their depths.

someone criticized veritas, and you could have googled whether that criticism was valid or not, but didn't. then when i illustrated it you protested, twice.

simply put veritas and msm arent the same. they employ drastically different tactict in pursuit of deluding their audiences, their only similarity is that they prey on confirming peoples' biases. which is what i passive-aggressively warned you of, so that you dont fall victim in your presumptive research.

you can do your own research on veritas, just be warned the info lining up with your biases isn't proof they're honest. they're basically actors doing gotcha journalism.

You also have their sting video purporting that Planned Parenthood was selling body parts of aborted fetuses. This actually ended up with three people getting killed in Colorado, as the shooter in that instance directly referenced the discredited report in his statements to police.

well... i asked for example and was given one. i read it in full and made decisions myself about the circumstance.
that's kind of the norm here isn't it?

sure though, i could stop using the forum and just google everything. and so could all of you...

"your" illustrations did not align with the example i was given. in that context i believe it's fair to challenge your thoughts.

PV has a few decent stories. They got some people fired for potentially committing election fraud. The Epstein spike by ABC was pretty good. The whistleblowers are interesting enough. Outside of that its pretty awful.

Bernie Sanders..... what a sexist pig.

Did you all hear how he said a woman can never be president?

shocker, project veritas didnt tell their audience the number of planned parenthood locations they had to go to to find one person who offered to sell them baby parts? crazy, wow, unreal. i can hardly believe you...

no need to stop posting here, follow this simple easy guide for much success:

1. read a claim you think cant be true
2. go research a claim
3a. come back and refute the claim
3b. realize your life is a lie, quit your job, sell all of your worldly goods, 1 way ticket to a Tibetan monastery, devote your life to the one true supreme being, pray 12 times a day, say nothing ever again, get good at karate, survive the terrorist attack caused by an angry ex monk turned mob boss, emerge from your hiding place in the ashes to offer your karate services (and continued silence) to one of the mob bosses enemies who comes to investigate, beat the mob boss and in a shock to everyone involved utter one single bad ass catchphrase, "silence is violence".

to what i'm reading about that, it's still a controversial issue. PP is not "selling" fetal remains, but they are still donated and reimbursed if it costs PP anything.

i'm not aware of the work of Project Veritas, in this instance, outside of what i just read. i do know there is still controversy over these donations though.
i cannot substantiate any claims, but i am aware of claims that some PP locations are coaxing people into having abortions to further research faster.
(again, i'm "not" stating this as "my" opinion, but i am aware of the claims)

to claim PP is selling fetal remains is prime example of misleading coverage though.

wrong example... you are covering a "new" one that i have not responded to yet...
no need to read the rest since you're just giving me a bs post.

the ABC story and google story are the only 2 i have knowledge of before this thread.
i didn't recall everyone stating any of this stuff back when i linked those videos.

no need to read


Your m.o. im gathering.

i see you're still here arguing for an organization you did 3 mins research on, instead of researching.

my passive aggressiveness would just get confirmed if you did research anyways i'd bet my bank account. feel free to prove me wrong.
