James O’Keefe ousted from Project Veritas after power struggle with board
(Worthy News) – An emotional James O’Keefe said Monday that he has left Project Veritas, the undercover journalism outfit he founded and led for 13 years, after being effectively forced out by the board of directors amid behind-the-scenes strife.
Mr. O’Keefe said he called for the nonprofit communications company’s board to resign after members stripped him two weeks ago of his authority as CEO, removed him from the board and placed him on leave over allegations of mismanagement and mistreatment of staff.
“I was asked to be gone until the 20th. It is now the 20th,” Mr. O’Keefe said in a 45-minute video filmed at his office that was posted online. “I asked the board to resign for their conduct and they did not. So currently I have no job at Project Veritas. I have no position here based upon what the board has done.” [ Source (Read More…) ]
