Following the Money, the Associated Press Moves Left

At the end of a recently published Associated Press investigation into American tech companies “that have supported Israel’s wars” came a disclosure: “The Associated Press receives financial assistance from the Omidyar Network.”

The language indicates a shift at the media outlet, whose special White House access President Trump recently withdrew. The news-gathering cooperative was once funded largely by dues from member newspapers. Now it increasingly relies on handouts from left-leaning charities. Yet it insists its journalism is “independent” and “nonpartisan.”
