Description

The one real difference between the American press and the Soviet state newspaper Pravda was once that the Russian people knew they were being lied to. To expose the lies our media let us know today, controversial journalist James O’Keefe created Project Veritas, an independent news organization whose reporters go where traditional journalists dare not. Their investigative work–equal parts James Bond, Mike Wallace, and Saul Alinsky―has had a consistent and powerful have an effect on on its targets.

In American Pravda, the reader is invited to go undercover with these intrepid journalists as they infiltrate political campaigns, unmask dishonest officials and expose voter fraud. A rollicking adventure story on one level, the book also serves as a treatise on modern media, arguing that establishment journalists have a vested interest in keeping the powerful comfortable and the people misinformed.

The book not only contests the false narratives often put forth by corporate media, it documents the consequences of telling the truth in a world that doesn’t necessarily wish to hear it. O’Keefe’s enemies attack with lawsuits, smear campaigns, political prosecutions, and false charges so as to shut down Project Veritas. For O’Keefe, every this kind of attacks is an indication of success.

American Pravda puts the myths and misconceptions surrounding O’Keefe’s activities to rest and will make you rethink every word you hear and read in the so-referred to as mainstream press.
