The government's response demonstrates its hostility to Project Veritas

The government's response demonstrates its hostility to Project Veritas and thus a free press writing quote, Project Veritas is not engaged in journalism within any traditional or accepted definition of the word. Can you believe the audacity of the government to say that Project Veritas and James O'Keefe are not real journalists because they publish things that are nonconsensual and they go about getting information through investigative means? Imagine if, to be real journalists, you could only publish that which the government gave you consent to publish. I would argue that at that point, you're no longer a real journalist. You are just a useless mouthpiece for the government.
