So recently, some liberal claimed that AP is completely free of political bias so from now on, when I see it, I am posting it here. Please don't move this to the media forum where no one will see it.


Here is the first example. It talks about the eroding ratings of MSM morning shows. It mentions Covid, people getting up later and a couple of other reasons. It leaves OUT a huge reason. Politics. Never even mentions it.

Morning shows extend the day to cope with viewer erosion

Yet who cares about the traffic and weather if you're not leaving the house?

Viewership is down at all three programs, although to be fair, it is for television in general. But for the morning shows, the loss hits hardest among viewers aged 25-to-54 —- working people. In that age group, viewing dropped 22% between the first three months of 2020 and this year at “Today,” 24% at “Good Morning America” and 16% at “CBS This Morning,” the Nielsen company said.

The number one reason I refuse to watch the MSM is because it is nothing but liberal propaganda.

How many decades have "conservatives" been crying about this while their media bubble spews 24/7 manufactured outrage?

Never gets old does it?

It never gets old because it’s a fact that unfortunately never changes.

The recent headline about the Canadian Residential Schools and the 200+ children’s bodies they found buried-the story I read indicated the Canadian Government was mostly to blame with definite involvement of some kind by the Catholic Church.

Left wing story linked on Reddit “Catholic Church run schools…”. Dangerously biased our media of today.

Well the final nail in corporate media's coffin was last year, not just parroting Fauci's endless flip flops on masks and COVID but on refusing to cover the riots and calling out the violence.

I mean for God's sake, a leftist mayor in Seattle ceded an entite police precinct to the mob rather than reign in the violence and allowed seditionists to take an "autonomous zone"

"Summer of Peace", the media said - Reputation permanently destroyed

It's funny because I guess I'm the opposite. I never watched the morning shows but now that I'm working from home and have a TV in my office I turn them on occasionally.

I've never seen politics come up in any morning show. (Note I'm talking GMA, Today, etc. Not "the view" which I don't think this article is referencing).

What are you basing your conclusions on?

The AP is compromised. Not a reliable source of info. Just one example... it has a Hamas problem. The US Government has designated Hamas a Foreign Terrorist Organization. https://www.dni.gov/nctc/groups/hamas.html

How the AP covers for the atrocities committed by Hamas:
