AP Editorializes Negatively on Lower than Expected Inflation Rate
Newsbusters ^ | December 18, 2025 | P.J. Gladnick

Apparently blatant editorializing in place of straight news now seems to be becoming increasingly the rule not the exception at the Associated Press.

The latest example of AP breaking its own rules against opinionating in news stories is so blatantly absurd as to be laughable. The AP on Thursday actually took the November inflation rate of 2.7% which was below the expected 3.1% and somehow turned that good news into a negative. Check the headline on AP reporters Paul Wiseman's and Anne D'Innocenzio's editorial poorly disguised as an article, "US says price increases eased last month but data may be distorted and Americans aren’t feeling it."

TDS is so intense that it causes AP to continue violating its own strict rules about leaving opinions out of their stories. And the frequency of these violations are increasing. I wrote up another blatant violation just a couple of weeks ago.

AP and its lawyers and Officials
should be SUED for $17 trillion for LYING.

If they do not pay in 30 days, they should be jailed
and their assets sold.

We can’t have good news as long as Trump is President. It’s sickening to have these biased slanted garbage opinions put out as a news. More folks need to wake up to it. I was at my 80-year-old neighbors last night and she had on CNN and none of what they said was truth and so biased it become their opinions. So, she turns to me and said: Trump shouldn’t have been allowed to be the ballot for President. I got up to leave before I ranted and told her she needed to shut off leftwing medias and think for herself. I wanted to tell her Missouri overwhelmingly voted for Trump so maybe it was her who needed to do some critical thinking instead of letting the medias LEAD HER. It makes me sick they can still get away with this. It’s not fair to all the citizens.

AP once meant associated press. Now I just read it as all propaganda. It is an extremely powerful “news” source.
