So if I have read correctly both links talk about the same (the main source for the Cato article is the report from Carl Bernstein) and they state that some reporters that worked at some point in their lives at the Associated Press were tied to the CIA like 50 years ago.
I mean, sure the CIA and other goverment agencies from different countries sure have an interest in deposing Maduro; but claiming that this coverage from AP is propagand (which stance is very much the same as other non-westie sources) is blissful in itself.

Let's see. CIA activities historically are not revealed for 30 - 50 years, many are never revealed. The CIA has used the AP for propaganda before. The USA has exhibited an incredibly focused desire to delegitimize Venezuela even against evidence from former president Carter's foundation on democratic elections.
Yeah, the fact that they used to be infiltrated and are currently pushing state department narratives is the evidence we need to see them as a compromised mouth piece for North Atlantic hegemony
