Yo, @JamesOKeefeIII, don't call your minions "reporters." Ethical reporters identify themselves upfront. They do not hide and squirrel around.https://wapo.st/2Q5MQ3u?tid=ss_tw&utm_term=.d63bbf5affd7 …

No, they are actually way above what you consider reporters. If we have to depend on what your definition of a reporter is then we will never learn the truth. Thank you James as you and your team are truly appreciated!!!
Get smart. Read up on ABC v. Food Lion, when ABC reporters posed as employees to bust Food Lion and the grocer won a huge judgment against ABC for deception in 1992. The jury award was eventually thrown out but it changed the way reporters do their work.https://www.nytimes.com/1997/03/09/arts/beyond-abc-v-food-lion.html …

Food Lion distinguished b/c actors took paychecks from Food Lion, so the fraud claim stuck. The jury never saw the actual undercover video. You don't have to "like" O'Keefe to see the danger in government hearings about who is and isn't a "reporter."https://dailycaller.com/2018/10/30/mccaskill-attack-on-investigative-journalism/ …

Is it important for American people to learn the unvarnished truth about candidates running for public office, prior to casting their votes in an election?

I’m of the belief that “freedom of the press” enables reporters & news agencies to work for, & in the interests of, “the people.” What your tweet suggests is that the press should work for the “Food Lion’s” of America, not the citizens.

"Read up on a court case that got thrown out." Folks just posted up at least 3 examples of NEW YORK TIMES reporters UNDER COVER, all of them AFTER 1992. So tell us all another way how "it changed the way reporters do their work" because you've just been shown clearly IT HASN'T.
