The New York Times
reports that the Associated Press
-- the worldwide news service that every formerly
mainstream news organization uses -- will distribute stories
from four leftist nonprofits in addition to its own liberal
reporting:
Starting on July 1, the A.P. will deliver work by the
Center for Public Integrity, the Investigative Reporting
Workshop at American University (cranks out many of the
FMSM journalists), the
Center for Investigative Reporting, and ProPublica
to the 1,500 American newspapers that are A.P. members, which
will be free to publish the material.
The A.P. called the arrangement a six-month experiment that
could later be broadened to include other investigative
nonprofits, and to serve its nonmember clients, which include
broadcast and Internet outlets.
Newspapers are still useful for starting bonfires and lining
birdcages, ya know.
