Hmmm, and interestingly enough their video exposing google was taken down only hours after it was uploaded. The footage they had on those working in google were pretty straight forward. I would argue, that mega corporations with way too much power in their hands are the manipulative ones. It's pretty hard to create a false narrative with such raw footage. The person who's identity that was concealed can certainly be approached with skepticism, but the under cover video footage they included spoke volumes in and of itself.
This is a good illustration of what I was talking about with regards to people not understanding the power of editing. Allow me to illustrate how this works. Here are your original posts:
Project Veritas is awesome. They really expose a lot of deep corruption that's on the inside of these evil companies. Anyone who's been paying attention to the craziness that's going on has already figured this was the case when it comes to google. Yet it's a breath of fresh air to see them exposed for the dirty manipulators that they are. Thanks for uploading!

Now, here's my impression of Project Veritas' slice-and-dice job:

ETA: Or here's one where I narrate (imagine every time I speak, you see me in the studio, while every time you speak, you're on a hidden camera):
Me: "Tryphena is a big fan of google and their internal culture. She was worried they were getting a bad rap in public and was glad that the Project Veritas footage exonerated them."
You: "It's pretty hard to create a false narrative with such raw footage. The person who's identity that was concealed can certainly be approached with skepticism, but the under cover video footage they included spoke volumes in and of itself." <white flash> "those working in google were pretty straight forward." <white flash> "Anyone who's been paying attention to the craziness that's going on has already figured this was the case."
That's a bit different, no? I didn't add a single word to what you wrote. I just removed and re-arranged some things and in the second example, steered the audience's interpretation more overtly. In both cases, I completely flipped the meaning of what you said without adding or faking anything. That's what Project Veritas does.
Now, to this specific video. Youtube took it down, but it's still available here:
Insider Blows Whistle & Exec Reveals Google Plan to Prevent “Trump situation” in 2020 on Hidden Cam – Project Veritas
There is no "raw footage" in that video. There's nothing even remotely approaching "raw footage". Every time the screen flashes white, there's an edit. Every time the camera angle changes, there's an edit. Every time the zoom / focal length changes, there's an edit. Every time it cuts back to O'Keefe and the masked man, there's an edit. All of the narrative and interpretation is provided by O'Keefe and the masked man. They tell you what to think about what the woman is saying. The video even removes the questions to which she was responding, which should be a dead giveaway to anybody that they're up to something fishy.
They have, in the past, released some less-edited footage that certainly looked bad, but this? This is nothing. There's nothing here. This is them conning the gullible.
