This was interesting but so far hasn't gotten a lot of attention. It was a plan, leaked by someone who used to work for James O'Keefe's Project Veritas, to infiltrate Reverand Wright's Church and do some selective editing of people blathering on about Marxism or some such thing. Involved in the plan were Shaughn Adeleye, one of the people involved in the NPR sting, and Ken Larrey, former leader of the Duke Students for an Ethical Duke now living in Houston.
The plan sounded pretty dumb, but the right-wing has such an effective media megaphone right now it doesn't really matter how dumb their stuff is. If they make a stink about anything, the msm will dutifully report it. But mostly I find the leaked emails interesting because there are some good reasons for thinking that Ken (or Kenny) Larrey is the previously anonymous accomplice (who calls himself simontemplarpv on Twitter) in the b.s. NPR "sting" by Project Veritas. I won't go into detail quite yet, but there's a pretty substantial body of evidence, starting with the fact that Adeleye and Templar worked together on the NPR sting.
Regardless of whether Larrey is "Simon Templar," he's shown himself to be someone willing to use O'Keefe-style tactics.

James O'Keefe Exposed on NPR's "On The Media"
Since I've been discussing the unethical practices of O'Keefe and his disciples in the St. Louis tea party, this is an absolutely fantastic recent takedown of James O'Keefe on NPR's "On the Media":
The host expose exposes blatantly misleading edits by O'Keefe, and O'Keefe's only response is to attack some vague straw man that says "everyone must release full unedited video at all times." The reality is that O'Keefe has been busted numerous times blatantly lying and editing video to reflect the exact opposite of reality. That's indefensible, and it's no wonder that O'Keefe refuses to take on the criticisms directly.

Activist Hub Radio 3/13/11:The Media's problem with Labor & NPR Punked by James O'Keefe's Lies
Adam and I discussed the mainstream media's poor coverage of the 4000+ pro-Labor rally in St. Louis, particularly the St. Louis Post Dispatch, and KMOV. We moved on to NPR getting punked by James O'Keefe's deceitful video editing, and ended the show discussing the Obama administration's maltreatment of Pfc. Bradley Manning.

I just thought all the moderates and sane conservatives would want to know that.
