Ok...he's not as bad as O'Keefe.

But he still uses some of O'Keefe's notorious techniques.

Severe and misleading or downright deceptive editing.

Adding to films what was not there in the first place.

Think about it: he and his team spend months deciding who they're going to confront. They craft their questions. They craft their follow-up questions. They storyboard their shots. Then, they jump out of the bushes and ask an embarrassing question. If the person doesn't respond and just walks away, they look like they're hiding something.
