James O'Keefe seems to be one of the very last, if not THE last, actual 'journalist'. At least when using the classical definition of the term. Regardless of what or whom the story involves, or the levels of power working & conspiring in the dark to stop or even harm him, he pushes forward in search of the truth.
Perhaps taking the path of John Stossel & his type of investigative journalism marked with a straight-forward delivery, he offers no apology for ruffled feathers after someone's had their corruption laid bare in a video recording. Instead, he asks for the corrupt to apologize. Yet he's hammered for it.
The tide is turning. Perhaps one day soon, the consumers of "news" will begin to question why they've been comfortable for so long with false talking points & focus group tested stories rather than actual journalism. Perhaps.
