A new report from the Washington Free Beacon is warning the reading public that Associated Press news stories on courts, global warming and other issues are being funded by left-wingers.
Company spokeswoman Nicole Mier told the publication that “no funder has any influence over AP journalism,” but the report confirmed multiple huge special interest group payments to the legacy wire service that got its start in the mid-1800s using telegraph wires to send stories from one city to another.
Among the funders of the reporting from AP is a foundation that was launched by Nikole Hannah-Jones, the accuracy-challenged creator of the “1619 Project” that contends all of America is racist, and has been criticized by historians as being wildly inaccurate.
The report explained AP last year announced “partnerships” in which private organizations subsidize reporters writing about global warming, race and democracy.
“A review of the donor roster shows that the vast majority fund left-wing political causes, while none are supporters of conservative initiatives,” the Free Beacon reported.
It’s not a coincidence that the AP and “left wing” organizations receive funding from some of the same sources. It’s because they are all interested in pursuing and living pursuant to the truth.
