BREAKING: James O'Keefe gives update on YouTube Removing Critical Mass #DirectedEvolution Video
https://rumble.com/v27f5xw-breaking-...ss-direct.html
O'Keefe wasn't using ambush journalism. In ambush journalism, they intercept the person, identify as a journalist and then ask questions that are awkward for the person they have ambushed. 60 Minutes did that back in the 70's. They never failed to state who they were and who they worked for.
This raises the question of whether they were actually conducting journalism which is what Veritas has argued in court. Veritas has been sued and lost cases for pretending to be other people and not identifying as journalists. That is not journalism in any sense of the word.

"Hatred is a failure of imagination" - Graham Greene, "The Power and the Glory"
Experts call this style of journalism ethical and ambush journalism.
AMBUSH JOURNALISM Is this type of ambush journalism ethical? This type of ambush jounalis is ethical since it exposes evil and wrong doings in the society.https://studybay.com/latest-orders/44019/Media Ethics - Dateline's "To Catch a Predator"to-catch-a-predator Many of you have probably seen at least one episode of NBC Dateline's "To Catch a Predator." www.youtube.com (Links to an external site.) If you have not, here's my synopsis....NBC Dateline works with an online predator watchdog group called "Perverted Justice" (http://www.perverted-justice.com (Links to an external site.)). Perverted Justice employees pose as young girls and boys (usually 13, 14, or 15 years old) in online chatrooms. The decoys try to get the older men (sometime much older) to meet them in person. The men drive to the decoy's house (sometimes from hundreds of miles away). All of this is caught on tape. Each man is invited in to the home by the decoy and they meet for a brief moment. Then the decoy leaves the room and NBC reporter Chris Hansen enters. Hansen asks the man about why he is at the teenager's home and what he expected from the rendezvous. The men often have seen the show before but still show up. Shortly after the exchange with Hansen, the man usually flees the house and is then arrested outside by the police and charged as a sex offender in that state. [B]1) Is this type of "ambush journalism" ethical? (Definition of ambush journalism: Ambush journalism refers to aggressive t actics practiced by journalists to suddenly confront with questions people who otherwise do not wish to speak to a journalist.)

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

That depends. In Texas, it's this: https://guides.sll.texas.gov/recordi...udio-recording
"Texas is considered a "one-party consent" state. This means that unless at least one of the parties to a conversation consents, both Texas and federal wiretapping laws make it a crime to record an audio conversation, either in person or over the phone, if the parties have a "reasonable expectation of privacy".
Courts have generally held that there may not be a reasonable expectation of privacy out in public, but the legality of a specific recording will depend on the circumstances. An attorney can advise you on the recording laws and how they may affect a recording you plan to make.
Below you will find links to Texas and federal laws related to audio recordings..."
https://www.criminaldefenselawyer.co...-myself-anothe
"The U.S. and the states have their own laws governing the legality of surreptitious recording of oral, telephonic, and other communications. A person's secret taping of a conversation is governed by the laws of the state in which she is making the recording unless the federal law is more protective of privacy....
...The Wiretap Act (as well as each state law governing secret recording of conversations) protects only those communications that the individuals being secretly recorded reasonably expect to be private. Whether one has a reasonable expectation of privacy in a given situation depends upon the context: Was the conversation in a public or private location? Did the individual being recorded treat the subject matter as private? A person who is bragging at a party about cheating a friend in a business deal cannot later object to the introduction of a recording of this admission as evidence in a lawsuit filed by his ex-friend."
