    What do you think the AP is?

    Here’s Cato, not exactly a bastion of truth about the West, listing AP as one of the institutions with deep ties to the CIA

    https://www.cato.org/commentary/how-national-security-state-manipulates-news-media#

    And here’s a summary/editorial of the findings around CIA and journalism which also directly fingers AP

      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.
