AP = Agitation and Propaganda
Enemy propaganda.
lily white liberals and rich men north of Richmond. Democrats all.
I’ve suspected this for years, and that it goes across the entire media, not just the AP.
My reason for this is my knowledge of artists, and of the mentality of artists. And of my belief that most “journalists” are actually writers who can’t get their own creative ideas published.
Writers will do anything for a buck. They want to write, but they think they should be well compensated for their work product. This is because they’re well aware of how many writers make a lot of money writing. They think they deserve to be compensated generously too. “Stephen King’s a writer, I’m a writer, why should he make more than I?”
The fact that being a writer is typically a very low-paying job strikes them as unfair; this unfairness makes them victims of the unjust Capitalist system.
Their victimhood justifies their doing anything necessary to make money. Anything necessary as writers, that is. Anything necessary to not have to moonlight as something else, as so many writers do, especially when they’re young and haven’t built an audience.
For these reasons, and because so many young people want join the profession of “writers,” buying a writer is cheap.
Just look at any website of the “alternative media.” You’ll find dozens and dozens of unknown, recent-grad writers. They are paid very little by these online publications, often nothing.
Remember when it came out how little The Huffington Post was paying their writers? Unfortunately, I can’t find the history of the Huffington Post by Google, but I seem to recall over the months leading up to the purchase of that publication by AOL, it came out that many if not most of their writers received no compensation at all, except for their byline as writers for The Huffington Post.
That’s the lot of the typical young writer. Throw them a few bucks and they’ll write whatever you want.
Add in the fact that most of them are lefties to begin with, and you have the recipe for the near-total dominance of the Left-wing point of view in “journalism.” It’s been that way since the ‘60s, if not before.
Here’s an example, the Poynter Institute in St. Pete.
A hive of scum and villainy.
