And so it begins:

quote:

Filmmakers who were targets of an undercover sting operation by James O'Keefe have filed a criminal complaint with police and have asked the FBI to determine whether federal laws were broken when the journalist surreptitiously recorded phone calls and a lunch meeting, a spokesman for movie producers Josh and Rebecca Tickell said Wednesday.

"I can confirm that this matter has been reported to federal and local law enforcement for investigation of whether certain state and federal laws were violated," said Jonathan Franks, a managing partner at Lucid Public Relations.

This is not surprising. I would not be surprised if Eric Holder got involved in this. Can't have citizens spying and recording people. That's his job.

Soooooo, it's OK for someone else in California to surreptitiously record otherwise private conversations then release them to the public, but it's not OK for O'Keefe to do it to self-important blowhards from Hollywood.

Got it.

I think what he is exposing is important but he very well may be breaking laws to do so. I do believe that you can't pick & choose which laws to enforce.

The people at that table are so spineless and wormy. Not one of them had the guts to tell the Saudi oil man that he's part of the problem and we don't want your money. This tells me they really have on conviction.

Hypocrite is not strong enough for this kind of behavior. These people are swindlers, no better than the hustlers who sell cars they know to be crap to the stupid and gullible.

Backstory?

So did these two record private conversations previously and release them for their own benefit?

If O'Keefe were put his cameras in a "conservative's" home, and tape someone using the "N" word, he could quickly earn a breakfast with the Obamas.
