In teaser footage tweeted Monday by Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe, Washington Post reporter Aaron Davis attempts to ambush the group’s imminent video release on the paper.
“The @washingtonpost attempts to ambush @Project_Veritas anticipating an imminent video release…,” tweeted O’Keefe.
The footage shows Davis following O’Keefe at an undisclosed location.
At the start of the clip, Davis appears to be asking O’Keefe about what the group is filming.
O’Keefe notes Davis is using the same “techniques,” as Project Veritas and asks if the reporter has been inspired by the guerrilla journalism organization.
“Uh…No,” replies a seemingly unsure Davis.
The clip then shows a muted conversation between Davis and O’Keefe.
“I think it’s really cute you guys are borrowing our techniques,” jokes O’Keefe.
Text reading “They’re worried we have a story on them…We do,” appears at the end of the video.

Now this…
O’Keefe reports a group of panicked reported staked outside Project Veritas’ headquarters Monday morning.
“A gaggle of reporters from the @washingtonpost staked outside of the @Project_Veritas HQ today. I’m honored. Maybe because they know what’s about to go down?”, tweeted O’Keefe.

Yay!! 😀👏I was hoping Project Veritas would expose the corruption within the Washington Post. I'm looking forward to this very much.
