An outlet named O’Keefe Media Group published the video.
James O’Keefe is the CEO and creator. He was the founder of Project Veritas, which was a conservative activist group known for its use of undercover stings and other deceptive tactics in an effort to discredit mainstream media organizations and progressive groups.
NBC Washington reached out to O’Keefe for comment on the video about the Commanders’ vice president of content and is waiting to hear back.
