Majority of articles posted on FR are sourced AP. We can’t share AP articles on FR anymore? That would be the kiss of death for FR since we love to discuss Darwin Awards and guilty or not guilty comments.

Rush has been talking about how AP abuses their virtual monopoly on print news media in this country. Something like 4,000 newspapers.

Not really.
Where do you think the AP gets their content. We can go directly to their sources.

The only original content they have are opinions, and they are worthless anyway.
I see perhaps a bit more work digging toward original sources. AP is not likely ever to be an original source.
