NYT Reporter Mike Schmidt Attempts to Recruit PV Journalist as Source for “Stupid F**king Diary”
• Mike Schmidt on Ashley Biden diary: “I’m just trying to figure out what happened with a stupid f**king diary.”
• Schmidt on Project Veritas obtaining the diary: “Would you [Project Veritas] be the first organization on the face of the Earth to go out and buy something in the middle of a political election and try to publish a story? No. There’s a strict, you know, a stream of American journalism in that area.”
• Schmidt: “Not that I’m some moralist or, like, whatever. I’m just some dude out there with a f**kin’ blank notepad in the crazy f**kin’ world trying to figure out what the f**k’s going on.”

[NEW YORK – Feb. 28, 2022] Project Veritas has published a phone call between a Project Veritas employee and New York Times journalist, Mike Schmidt, wherein Schmidt uses a flurry of F bombs in attempts to “figure out what happened with a stupid f**king diary,” a direct quote from Schmidt.
Schmidt is referring to the Times’ ongoing coverage of FBI raids at the homes of Project Veritas journalists regarding the diary of Joe Biden’s daughter, Ashley. Despite Schmidt’s previous reporting on the matter, he seems to acknowledge Project Veritas’ actions, as it pertains to obtaining the diary, are standard procedure in journalism.
“Would you [Project Veritas] be the first organization on the face of the Earth to go out and buy something in the middle of a political election and try to publish a story? No. There’s a strict, you know, a stream of American journalism in that area,” Schmidt says on the call. In another soundbite, Schmidt appears to make an appeal for the Project Veritas employee to trust him.
“If I was in the business of saying to people like you, ‘Hey, look. Level with me. I’m trying to figure out the facts,’ and turned around and f**king you? Then, I wouldn’t be able to do what I do. I just wouldn’t and it would also be the wrong thing to do,” Schmidt said in an apparent attempt to recruit the Project Veritas employee into becoming a NYT source. “Not that I’m some moralist or, like, whatever. I’m just some dude out there with a f**kin’ blank notepad in the crazy f**kin’ world trying to figure out what the f**k’s going on.”
