Same job, different uniform.

I've grown to detest the Associated Press.

Yes, the news is biased, blah, blah, blah.

It's still the news and it's not all bad.

But the AP has really lost the plot. Their news alerts automatically pop up when I open Yahoo! mail. I can't avoid reading the headlines.

Bonkers, those guys. They met Bias, whispered sweet nothings to Bias, coronated Bias, had Biases children.

The latest is hilariously bad. But at least it's good journalism, right Ms. Lane?



(Sorry, couldn't make the image any bigger. The headline reads, "Obama invokes grandmother's death in health debate."

AP-Now, it's personal.)

Oh I could write a book about how journalists slyly sneak bias into the most innocent-looking headlines and leads. It's quite shocking, actually, if you know how to find it.

No wonder newspapers are dying...
