O’Keefe Media Group is an organization based in Westwood, NJ, aiming to empower citizen journalists. It is led by James O’Keefe, also known for his involvement in Project Veritas, in which he was ousted as CEO. According to NorthJersey.com, Project Veritas has faced scrutiny for its methods, which include operatives using deceptive identities and videos being selectively edited to imply misconduct.

In a statement released later Monday, the group's board of directors said it had uncovered "financial malfeasance" and accused O'Keefe of spending "an excessive amount of donor funds in the last three years on personal luxuries."
According to the group, those included "$14,000 on a charter flight to meet someone to fix his boat under the guise of meeting with a donor"; $60,000 in losses from dance events; more than $150,000 "in Black Cars in the last 18 months"; and others.
