When James O'Keefe was at X university, he started Y magazine, whose motto is "veritas vos liberabit", after he was fired from the college newspaper. Y attempts to counterbalance "that which its staff perceive as a predominant orthodoxy of Social Liberalism and Political Progressivism of the professors and staff at the university" (quote from Wikipedia). Y is known for giving out awards like "Liberal of the month".
After leaving X, O'Keefe began working with pro-life activist Lila Rose. He came up with the idea for her to pose as an underaged pregnant teenager seeking help from Planned Parenthood and taping the exchanges. This led to Planned Parenthood losing much funding in Tennessee and California.
In July and August 2009, O'Keefe partnered with Hannah Giles and used similar tactics against another organisation, Z. After the videos were publicised, Z's participation in the 2010 United States census was terminated. Barack Obama, who once acted as an attorney for Z, stated the video content was "certainly inappropriate and deserves to be investigated."
Identify X, Y and Z.
