NewsBusters Podcast: AP Spreads Its Associated Publicity Across America

Washington dispatches are featured on the front page of newspapers all over America by the Associated Press. Sometimes those AP articles can be disguised as press releases from Bidenites, like Pete Buttigieg’s rising star or worrying pieces of sociology on Kyle Rittenhouse. They are also used to represent “gun culture.”

Hope Yen and Tom Beaumont reported that Transportation Secretary Buttigieg was his star riser with the billion-dollar infrastructure bill. They tout his advocacy for “racial equity” in road construction as “an issue where Democratic priorities and Buttigieg’s future align.” Republicans “pounced” on him, but he didn’t “engage them in their mockery.”

Sara Burnett started a Rittenhouse trial assessment with an objective appraisal of both the sides. However, the six last paragraphs were filled with left-wing remarks about gun enthusiasts wanting to purchase their “Warmonger,” weapons and “gun safety lobbyists” warning Rittenhouse from moving beyond what is acceptable.

The podcast also discusses AP reporting on Steve Bannon’s “criminal condempt” charges. It includes a discussion of Biden’s plans to provide subsidies for local news organizations. You can listen to the podcast by clicking below, or wherever else you like podcasts. Thank you for your consideration!
