For professional liars, what is it about "oath" that makes you think they will tell the truth? I get its an offense to lie, but isn't the punishment for lying under oath trivial?
Looking for a real explanation, as I could never grok this.
They’ll deflect all blame onto their upper management and claim themselves as victims. That is one thing journalists and woke can always be depended on.
So the shitshow will be enjoyable as they throw everyone else under the bus and portray themselves as helpless victims who were just trying to do good work in a climate of bullying and constant harassment.
Hopefully they do lie and the subpoenaed email records not only tank the NYT but those that lied in court get prosecuted for it. You can go to jail for over a year for that.
The check on this is that you don't know what the other side has that can be used to refute the lie.
I would hope Project Veritas infiltrators have been recording and smuggling records out of the NYT for years. When these fake news activists lie, they're going to be caught.
I love the fact that James O'Keefe knows exactly how to play the game by their rules and still make them look bad. It absolutely will be fascinating to see how this all turns out.
I think the point is to get them to perjure themselves, and have the courts take them out of the picture.
From my perspective, It's not really about making anyone tell the truth, or even having them face punishments.
Take the words from the series Chernobyl:
Leftists are power mongers. Power is illusory. The delegitimization of power by humiliation is a major threat. This is why lynchings and struggle sessions exist. In a just world, every one of these mother fuckers would rot to death in a cell for unleashing a system of industrialized psychological and emotional abuse upon the general population of the US for their own personal political and monetary benefit. But we do not live in a just world, so the correct option is to damage our enemies where it hurts them the most: their sense of power. This is why mockery, insult, and even comedy are explicitly banned by all authoritarians and tyrants. It is subversive to their sense of authority. Because power is illusory, the loss of perceived authority, is a loss of true power.
The public humiliation of an interrogation by Project Veritas, while not being a Struggle Session, will do plenty of damage to their credibility.
