Once more unto the AP bias

The news the AP leaves out
There’s a boilerplate in the current AP stories about the destruction of the “historic” Shepherd Hotel to make way for apartments. The relevant portion is in bold. (The fact that the AP finds it necessary to devote two paragraphs of … Continue reading
A new year, a new boilerplate

AP outsources news to Iranian propaganda arm
What’s wrong with this article? Take a moment, read through it, and come back. I’ll wait. So many things. But let’s start with the number one issue: The AP uncritically passes along the Iranian government publication’s description of the hanging … Continue reading
