That's the second time someone has been caught on tape calling the American voters "stupid". They don't mean "left" or "right", they mean everyone.

Completely unreliable without the context of the conversation and questions asked and release of unedit video.

I'm not saying that is not showing what it purports to show, but Veritas' previous videos would lead most objective observers to be suspicious.

Don't forget the story this week about NASA operating a child slave colony on Mars. Groundbreaking stuff!

And just for clarification, I watched the video in the OP. The most hilarious part is O'Keefe gravely talking about how CNN pared down an hour and a half of a panel interview to eight minutes, and how "striking" what they chose to omit was. Hilarious coming from him. No one knows how to do that better than O'Keefe.

The big bomshell--CNN lives by its ratings!! Wow, how earth shattering!! So does Fox News. Maybe lil Jimmie should go undercover there and ask his same questions of them. But he won't because that doesn't fit his agenda.

To paraphrase one of the people they taped, this whole thing is a big nothingburger. CNN may be shaking in thier boots, but only because they're laughing so hard at "investigative journalist" O'Keefe.
So it's OK that CNN made up the Russia thing for ratings. Got it.

And here comes the alternative reality. Do you honestly believe that CNN created a fake story that has fooled CIA, MI-6, the Germans the French, NSA, the US House and Senate, FBI, Vladimir Putin... Really?

Were you asleep during the primaries and election when all of this news was swirling well before CNN even bothered with it?
