Associated Press forced into correction after adopting wildly deceptive Dem language on court-packing

BPR:

The Associated Press was criticized and forced to issue a correction after a story on the Supreme Court appeared to adopt the same language being used by Democrats.

The news organization was called out when a recent article seemed to tout the Democratic narrative on court-packing as a way to “depoliticize” the high court. The AP ended up correcting the article and issuing an editor’s note to explain the change after it presented the commentary as fact.

The original article published this weekend was focused on the Montana’s U.S. Senate race and the debate that occurred between incumbent GOP U.S. Sen. Steve Daines and Gov. Steve Bullock, his Democratic opponent.

As noted by Real Clear Politics co-founder and president Tom Bevan and others, the original wording in a portion of the report by Iris Samuels quickly raised eyebrows. more

  1. They should use AsP for their moniker. The same deadly snake that killed Cleopatra.
    The imbecile who said the pen is mightier than the sword, never used a pen and a sword fight.

  2. Anybody that wants proof that the media is on the side of the leftists need go no further than this.

    The AP bastards did this deliberately, and then got called out for it. A good and fair editor would not have let this pass.

  3. Absolutely. Trump should announce the day after his election victory that in the spirit of uniting the country and working across the aisle, he is implementing the policy proposal of democrats and adding 19 new seats to the supreme Court. He expects Mitch to suspend the filibuster to expedite the process of confirming the new justices and he already has a list of nominees. Let the lefty heads explode.
