Project Veritas has been the collection of a small group of idealistic truth-telling journalists from its inception in 2010. Frustrated by the mainstream’s power to silence important voices and stories, Project Veritas chose not to complain about the media but instead decided to become the media. James O'Keefe founded Project Veritas in the wake of Hannah Giles' successful ACORN Investigation. Hundreds of major investigations later, Project Veritas has resurrected the great American tradition of investigative journalism and proven its potential to reveal stubbornly hidden truths.
Since 2010, many bright and unsung men and women have gone undercover to expose the corruption of society’s most powerful people and institutions. With the financial backing of generous everyday Americans, Veritas has produced some of the nation’s best journalism, won fundamental first amendment battles, and permanently reestablished a standard for truth in media.
