The unnamed AP representative should be identified, and then fired for incompetence.

WTNQ-FM should sue AP for contract violation of their rights as a partner.

On the other hand, this is one more instance of why traditional news agencies are on the short path to extinction. So long big syndicated newspapers! It was nice while it lasted.

The AP is trying to figure out how to make money on their content. They are making the same mistakes that most dinosaur media providers make. They want to build a wall around their content and force you come in through their pay turnstile. They will fail just like all who have tried this before have failed.

I for one would never pay for an AP story. Their content is always 5% fact and 95% liberal spin. I can find the facts from other sources. The liberal spin I can do without.

The AP does realize that if they don't keep up with the times, they're going to shrivel up and die, right?

HAHAHAHAHA Shame on AP.

I'm sure Cnet is very busy and doesn't have tome to investigate and such. But has any one seen AP's web presence. OMG their web page is terrible. Comparing it to United Press International. HAHAHAHA
And even AP's job postings indicate they need some web help not only in the openings they have but also in the Submit button that doesn't work for IE or Firefox browser.
HAHAHA Check out what I'm talking about here on my post....

Nice job Cnet!
These old boys at AP need to get the web presence up to date! In more ways than ONE!
HAHAHAHA
