[Breitbart] The Obama administration warns that Americans and journalists should be skeptical of material coming from James O'Keefe's Project Veritas.
During the White House press briefing, press secretary Josh Earnest warned that Americans and journalists should take Project Veritas videos "not just with a grain of salt but maybe even a whole package of salt."
"Despite what the name might suggest, these videos have not often revealed the truth," Earnest said, though he admitted that many Democrats had been forced out of their jobs as a result of O'Keefe's work.
Robert Creamer, a top Democratic operative featured in the video, stepped down from his position after he admitted in the video that he was actively trying to incite violence at opposing political rallies.
Earnest said that he was "reluctant" to comment on the videos themselves, but talked about the topic of "birddogging" opposing rallies.
In general, Earnest said, the notion of inciting violence in an opposing candidate's campaign was contrary to Obama's views of community organizing. |
