MODERATORS
From another biased source:

You consider the Associated Press a biased source?
A hundred times yes. AP is inseparable from US imperialism. It projects the Pentagon's version of reality to a global audience. Through sheer volume it floods the airwaves to the detriment of other countries' own news agencies, sets the agenda, and is integral to US hegemony, as soft power.
So post your citations
Your first link is to a summary of a book and your second doesn’t mention the associated press
I don’t know what to tell you. To not be familiar with Chomsky’s or Parenti’s work is to lack basic media literacy, which, to be fair, is most people.
If you don’t want to read a book, you might start with the video documentary: Manufacturing Consent Noam Chomsky and the Media (Documentary) 1080p
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

When this is your reaction to being asked for a source, people will immediately conclude that your claims are 100% made up
Their issue. I'm not a teacher, and I'm done trying to school baby liberals. This isn't reddit, but lemmy.ml, as in Marxism Leninism, and I'm too tired to go hunting for basic media imperialism 101 articles to argue on the internet because some guy said "src plz". The source is me, ok. This is not an academic paper, go find your own sources if you wanna dig in. I'll even help you out: Google Scholar the terms "associated press" and imperialism and soft power. Or better yet, just fucking read Lenin's Imperialism, highest stage of capitalism. This is basic shit that anyone from of the 50+ countries US empire has invaded knows.
