~ Project Veritas Founder’s Future Up in the Air as Rumors Fly
Truth seekers who rely on alternative news sources like Project Veritas are shocked by today’s breaking news that James O’Keefe has been placed on paid leave. The media organization’s board reportedly will be discussing his future and possible removal from the company’s leadership, sources told the Intelligencer.
An internal message sent to Project Veritas employees by the organization’s executive director, Daniel Strack, said that O’Keefe would be taking “a few weeks of well-deserved PTO.” An image of the message was shared by a source familiar with the organization’s internal operations, and its authenticity was confirmed by a current employee. When reached for comment on his personal cell phone, O’Keefe said nothing in response and did not respond to follow-up calls and text messages. Through a Project Veritas spokesman, Strack later released a statement on behalf of the organization. “Like all newsrooms at this stage, the Project Veritas Board of Directors and Management are constantly evaluating what the best path forward is for the organization,” the statement read in part. It did not directly address questions about O’Keefe’s employment status. “There are 65+ employees at Project Veritas dedicated to continuing the mission to expose corruption, dishonesty, waste, fraud, and other misconduct in both public and private institutions,” the statement read. “To our supporters: We hear you, we care about you, and we will never give up.”
O’Keefe recently got into two altercations - one with a Pfizer employee, and another with a New York Times reporter named Adam Goldman. There are also reportedly rumors from former employees who describe O’Keefe as a “bully” who “berated” employees.
O’Keefe is not only the founding face of Project Veritas. He is also the company’s heart and soul. Can PV continue to be a leading source for investigative journalism without O’Keefe?
The Project Veritas board is scheduled to meet this Friday to discuss the maverick investigator’s future.
Stay tuned.
