AP Pushes False News

This is just crazy. Greg Sargent reports on an emerging theme from the news media as shown in the AP story, "Iraq critics concede military progress." This storyline says that war critics are conceding

How does this keep happening? Did Republicans get the business office on board to bear pressure?

The Associated Press should drop their arrogance and respond directly to such strong criticisms. My experience is that they have an infallibility complex that prevents them from rationally considering criticism. All the more reason to keep after a response on the substance.

Journalism is on the run at the AP, increasingly replaced with a fearful pro-war and Bush-friendly slant.

p.s. Gotta love this Edwards line:
"I am not the candidate of glitz. I am not the candidate of glamor; nor do I claim to be. But what I am — I am the candidate for president of the United States that is the peoples' candidate."
