AP Acknowledges Its Bias

After pressure from those seeking some impartiality and objectivity in the media protested, the Associated Press issued a correction after it cleaned up President Obama's speech to cover up a gaffe. The president - who once claimed there were 57 states - again showed off his keen geography skills by moving Jacksonville, Fla., across the state to the Atlantic Ocean. Rather than publish anything accurate that might reflect poorly on the president, the AP corrected the quotes to make it appear Obama did not make the geographic flub. Fortunately, this is consistent with the AP and mainstream media practice of correcting President Bush, Sarah Palin, Dan Quayle, and other conservative leaders' gaffes. Not shocking but simply another example of blatant media bias, which has always been present with Democrats but reached unprecedented proportions during the Obama presidency.
