Attempting to embarrass and undermine the credibility of CNN, O'Keefe, along with fellow members of Project Veritas, staged a plan to seduce Abbie Boudreau, an investigative reporter for the network. His accomplice in the plan tipped Boudreau off before the plan was underway. O'Keefe has attempted to distance himself from the scheme. <ref>http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20018030-503544.html</ref>

In March 2011, O'Keefe organized an undercover video sting of NPR officials. Men posing as sympathetic Muslims attempted to donate $5 million dollars to [[NPR]] executives. On tape, the VP is heard bashing the [[Tea Party movement]] as racist. This action revealed the partisan nature of the taxpayer-funded media company. The affects were immediate, NPR's President resigned and their VP retired early.
The usual [[lamestream media]] cover-up began in defense of [[liberal]] NPR. NPR claims that they knew something was fishy, “we repeatedly refused to accept.” Now o'Keefe is set to release another tape showing not only was that statement false, but NPR offered to hide the funds from showing up in their donor records. <ref>[http://biggovernment.com/publius/2011/03/10/project-veritas-npr-planned-to-accept-donation-from-muslim-brotherhood-front-group-and-hide-origins-from-government/ Project Veritas: NPR Planned to Accept Donation from Muslim Brotherhood Front Group and Hide Origins From Government, BigGovernment.com, March 10, 2011]</ref>
Thanks to O'Keefe, calls to defund NPR in Congress just got louder.
