Below is a collection of the impactful media coverage surrounding the first video in a series exposing Twitter’s unethical tactics used to manipulate the news and politics:
- Michael Savage of SavageNation had James O’Keefe on his program on Wednesday to discuss the groundbreaking Twitter investigation. Savage said “What these people are doing seems to me like not only it has no moral compass – that goes without saying – why is there no outcry from the so-called liberal establishment? This is an outrage for all of us.”
- The International Business Times wrote a piece in which a Twitter Spokesperson responded to the Veritas videos:
“The individual depicted in this video was speaking in a personal capacity and does not represent or speak for Twitter. Twitter only responds to valid legal requests, and does not share any user information with law enforcement without such a request.
“We deplore the deceptive and underhanded tactics by which this footage was obtained and selectively edited to fit a pre-determined narrative. Twitter is committed to enforcing our rules without bias and empowering every voice on our platform, in accordance with the Twitter Rules.”
- Sean Hannity had O’Keefe on his radio show on Wednesday, questioning Twitter’s CEO Jack Dorsey about what his response to the Veritas videos is, “I recommend people ask politely – @jack – what are you going to do about this video?” Listen below:
- InfoWars wrote about the hidden-camera video, reporting “Project Veritas released undercover footage Wednesday showing anti-Trump Twitter employees reveal the extent of their bias and ability to peer into everyone’s account information – including President Trump’s.” Paul Joseph Watson also published an article on their website titled “Is Twitter Spying on Trump’s Private Messages?”
- PJ Media’s Debra Heine wrote an article titled “Twitter Security Engineer Says Company ‘More Than Happy’ to Give DOJ Trump’s DMs”
- Breitbart’s Allum Bokhari wrote an article featuring the Twitter Engineer’s statements, reporting “The undercover journalism outlet, famed for its exposés revealing bias in the mainstream media, has now turned its attention to the tech companies that have come to dominate access to information in the modern world.”
- Gateway Pundit wrote an article “O’KEEFE STRIKES AGAIN: Undercover Video Reveals Twitter Willing to Give Trump’s Private Messages to DOJ Without Warrant”
- Writer Joshua Philipp for The Epoch Times wrote about the Twitter story, reporting “Haynes reveals the amount of information that Twitter retains on its users, reveals that it keeps this information in case authorities request it, and suggests that some Twitter employees are able to access this information on users.”
- Milo Yiannapoulos, famous for being banned from Twitter, spoke about the Project Veritas video on Wednesday, saying “the worst and most powerful offenders are’nt media companies, they’re technology companies. And the most partisan of them all is of course, Twitter.” See the clip below:
