On Friday, the Associated Press posted an advisory to editors about suspected cases of Ebola, which they’re hearing of more and more.
“The AP has exercised caution in reporting these cases and will continue to do so,” the advisory reads.
Here’s the rest:
Most of these suspected cases turn out to be negative. Our bureaus monitor them, but we have not been moving stories or imagery simply because a doctor suspects Ebola and routine precautions are taken while the patient is tested. To report such a case, we look for a solid source saying Ebola is suspected and some sense the case has caused serious disruption or reaction. Are buildings being closed and substantial numbers of people being evacuated or isolated? Is a plane being diverted? Is the suspected case closely related to another, confirmed Ebola case?
When we do report a suspected case, we will seek to keep our stories brief and in perspective.

Go back further - they've been Leftists since at least the 2000 election cycle, or even further back during the Clintoon Years.
Remember the daily body count that every AP affiliate would run? "How Many American Boys Dead In Iraq So Far Under The Evil Stupid Genius George W Bush"?
Where is that body count now? Higher than ever, and nowhere in sight.
Sure they can violate the 1st amendment, but they wont even attempt to stop death from flying here in the first place!
The definition of “suspected Ebola case” is so absurdly loose as to be meaningless.
Things are not making sense. How could Duncans family not have Ebola? Either the virus has started to mutate to a less lethal form or it is mutating slowly within their bodies to adapt to a new climate and healthier bodies. I still wonder about flu shots or fluoride slowing down the adaption process.
Ameture hour in the press....
