James O’Keefe’s plans derailed by infighting, lack of funding
O’Keefe’s vision, pieced together from court filings, interviews and tax records filed by his nonprofit Project Veritas, has been hampered by bitter infighting, lack of funding and even his own fame.
And O’Keefe has begun to fight back, preparing lawsuits against two former associates-turned-critics — one who claims O’Keefe had little to do with his biggest post-ACORN exposé, focused on NPR, and another former colleague who says she backed out of a project last month because of O’Keefe’s lack of professionalism.
The mounting turmoil comes as O’Keefe’s recent efforts — including an apparently ongoing media bias exposé called ‘To Catch a Journalist’ and an effort to highlight the hypocrisy of Occupy Wall Street protesters — have mostly fallen flat.
