Why Is ABC News Feeding the Project Veritas Trolls?

 

David Wright surely isn’t the first journalist, while unwinding on the road, to jab at his bosses, question the corporate priorities of big TV networks, or express a personal political opinion. Wright, however, did so in the presence of an operative from right-wing sting outfit Project Veritas, who surreptitiously filmed the encounter, leading to his suspension from ABC News. The network, which has employed Wright for two decades, said in a statement that “any action that damages our reputation for fairness and impartiality or gives the appearance of compromising it harms ABC News and the individuals involved.” Wright, familiar to viewers of Good Morning America and World News Tonight, would also be shifted off politics, the network said, so as “to avoid any possible appearance of bias.”

 

In suspending Wright, ABC News handed a mainstream media scalp to James O’Keefe, whose conservative group has a long history of hiring undercover operatives to befriend journalists, secretly record their conversations, and egg them on to say embarrassing or professionally damaging things on camera. Their portfolio includes a botched attempt in 2017, in which a Project Veritas employee tried to feed a false story to the Washington Post about being raped by Roy Moore, a then GOP Senate candidate and accused sexual predator, in an apparent effort to cast doubt on the Alabama women who publicly came forward against him. (Moore has denied any improper behavior.)

The team then turned to a more unusual (/way cooler) source of beer guidance: the Ancient Egyptian hymn to Ninkasi, the Goddess of Beer. Helpfully engraved into a clay tablet, the hymn details the Egyptian goddess’ step-by-step brewing method. According to Ancient Egyptian scripture, brewing beer was a daily ritual for Ninkasi—which is probably the holiest thing I’ve ever heard.
