That is the whole point of undercover Journalism. Am I missing something?

 

I would like to know an instance where they intentionally mislead people (either through skewing data, omitting data, not reporting certain things, over-reporting other things to inflate the apparent severity, etc.). The points where they mislead and the points they omit will help draw you a detailed picture of there end goal (if they are trying to skew public opinion moreso than provide inside statements).

Secretly recording conversation without both party's consent is illegal in California.

O'Keefe's narrative is that Twitter silences Conservatives with shadow bans or the likes, in actuality with full context and ignoring O'keefe's commentary it's hard to substantiate that narrative from the recordings.

It's unequivocally not semantic. "Typical" is a word, and words have meanings, and by the meaning of the word 'typical, Veritas undercover publications typically yield solid confessions from the targeted organizations and people.

 

You made a comment "So I guess it's not the typical", in contradiction of the word 'typical''s meaning, I guess to cynically try to encourage the dismissal of the valid aspects of Veritas' publications. If anyone was trying to play with semantics, it was yourself, when you challenged the claim that Veritas' videos typically yield solid confessions - even if they're mixed in among a bunch of Veritas bluster, and edited-for-analysis portions of those full conversations.

 

semantics

sɪˈmantɪks/

noun

 

1. the branch of linguistics and logic concerned with meaning. The two main areas are logical semantics, concerned with matters such as sense and reference and presupposition and implication, and lexical semantics, concerned with the analysis of word meanings and relations between them.

Who sends nudes over Twitter? Or any unencrypted communication for that matter.

1. It's a bullshit law that enables 'he said, she said' BS.

2. This has no bearing on the validity of the information.

It technically doesn't but it opens them up to lawsuits or criminal charges, which doesn't affect the info but I've addressed that separately.

Surprised if Twitter goes through my DM's--they haven't banned me yet.  Banned somewhere near around 60 people I'd talk to but not me yet.
