Do not let this die people.
But AP is still refusing to name the reporter of their anonymous hit piece, aren't they?
LOL. Ain't it amazing the power us poor, ignorant, American civilians are accumulating because of the internet. I'LL GUARANTEE YOU THAT THE ONLY REASON THE AP CHANGED IT WAS BECAUSE A GAZILLION FREEPERS SENT THEM EMAILS COMPLAINING!
Not that I know of.
I am going on a day trip with my kids today, so I can't follow this.
I hope other Freepers who have time can keep a look out for this lie today and keep it on the front burner.
Don't worry, we'll ping ya! Enjoy your trip! :)
Believe none that you read and half of what you see.

NewsMax is running the old version of the story
Have a great day with you kids. We will man the ramparts.
The next thing to make the AP fix, is there lack of term 'terrorists' being used in the Russian Tragedy.
All I see are the terms Rebels and Militants and Separatists...
Thanks to Freepers like you blatent media bias like this does get exposed. Unfortuneately, it only the blatent incidents that can be clarified and impacted. We are unable to do anything about the thousands of subtle and not so subtle stories and reports that eminate from the MSM on a daily basis.
Keep up the good work. Keeping fighting the good fight. The internet is gaining more power and persuasion with the truth squad from Freeper Land.
Yes, we need to find out, and make this their epitaph.
Perhaps the RNC should hold a press conference where they play the audio tape.
And about this practice of running stories without a byline...JUST WHAT THE HECK IS WITH THAT? Why is that acceptable?!
Thank goodnes for the internet.
I'm still waiting for someone in the MSM to do a story on why the internet is the reason they can't get away with lies anymore.
I guess we could say that AP "did a flip-flop?"
Now that we're caught, we have to backpedal over that cattle dung.
"NewsMax (dated 7:32 a.m., Sept. 4) still says "Boos" even though the AP story was corrected yesterday afternoon."

I think perhaps that can be fixed, Carl?
