His associates filmed ACORN giving advice on setting up brothels involving underage prostitution trafficking as well as tax evasion tips at four ACORN offices around the country. In a brilliant strategy, he would release one tape which ACORN would dismiss. Then other tapes to stir the pot. A fourth tape was released that turned into a national firestorm which bypassed the corrupt media who refused to cover the liberal-aligned group.

State affiliates reorganized under new names in New York and California, others were banned from operating in Ohio and Maryland. Breitbart put ACORN on the defensive which is still reeling from his work and has announced it's closing business, bankrupt. <ref>[http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,589768,00.html ACORN Closing in Wake of Scandal, FOX News, March 22, 2010]</ref> . | + | His greatest success was undercover journalism performed by his employees James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles against ACORN.
