AP gratously inserted claims of rapes committed by U.S. service members in Cambodian in 1970 that had been fabricated in 1997 into an obituary in 2007.

When canceling your subscription to any of the liberal rags that purport to be newspapers, you might mention that you don’t trust any article with an AP attribution. If they are getting their stories from this anti-American source, their paper can’t be trusted. You might as well be getting your information straight from Al-Jezeera.

As the Associated Press was created by and IS IN FACT owned by a conglomeration of News Media interests (in the beginning newspapers, now many news movers of all sorts), and a vast amount of alleged news is AP sourced then logically we cannot trust anything any form of MSM provides as “news”.

So what we gonna do?

Note to AP “Making it up as we go along” is not a good tag line or operating philosophy.

For some reason, I thought that links in the body would be like links in a comment, i.e., would work without < a href=. ect.

Thanks for that. A check for Free Republic was sent in the mail last week. We aren’t into Credit Cards over the Internet. We are old fashioned I guess.
