I learned 25 years ago that AP was a propaganda tool of some very sinister types.
They printed extreme lies and fabrications on a particular subject that I was well versed in. AP printed these fabrications over the course of a decade consistently in a such a manner that it became to me they were pursing a agenda unrelated to the truth.
AP is fake news. Never believe anything with a AP byline
But now, thanks to our president, EVERYONE knows what AP is and is not!
