PV isn't "gotcha journalism". They've repeatedly committed felonies and completely fabricated things (ex. when they tried to trick WaPo into pushing a fake #metoo story about Roy Moore) in attempts to create their content.

> They've repeatedly committed felonies

That's quite a claim. If that's true, why aren't they in jail?

I'm sure they have many powerful enemies who would love to see them convicted of these multiple felonies.

O'Keefe plead out to a misdemeanor and served probation + a fine. But the crime he committed was a felony.

That's probably a felony in most parts of the US, although O'Keefe claims it wasn't since he didn't actually vote.
