Why do the major cable news stations steal their reports from the ASSOCIATED PRESS?
The major news channels all steal their news from the AP (Associated press). Why cant they just giv us original news on each seperate channel. New origianl news happens all day every day all over the world! I am tired of hearing the same thing on each and every channels news!!!!
Answer: They don't steal, they pay. News channels are a business, and it is much cheaper to buy a story than send an actual reporter. It's not just cable news, either. My local newspaper is almost all AP reports. The only real reporting relates to high school sports.

Does anyone has faith in what ASSOCIATED PRESS reports as news?
I have noticed that many news reports from Associated press reporters are either complete lies or half truths twisted in the appropriate direction.
Is someone can collaborate, why many news networks take these reported news of the Associated press correspondents for granted and present them as true facts? Maybe name "associated" entails some obligations to the associated?
Answer: Perhaps we should have more faith in the National Inquirer? The ones who broke the John Edwards scandal?

ASSOCIATED PRESS reports are carried by almost every news medium.Is this press freedom?
AP is almost monopolizing the media,especially the print media.This is not at all good for the freedom of the press.
Answer: It's cheaper for the dailies to use the AP as a wire service than to pay to staff foreign news bureaus. And it is cheaper for AP to use "stringers" in ferreting out and reporting the stories than to send their own employees into the venue of that news story.
That aside, Reuters, Agencie Press Francais (AFP) and a few other news services do provide stories as well. The trouble is that in the U.S. AP is familiar and is considered to be more "American" than the other news services. It all helps in keeping that shroud of ignorance around us so that we don't learn too much about the rest of the world.

How do I locate a recent article by the ASSOCIATED PRESS?
I was interviewed the other day by someone who works for the Associated press and I was told the article would be released on Thursday. I dont know how to find the article, though! I keep typing keywords in online but nothing comes up. Is there a place I can see all of the recent articles from the Associated press?
Answer: There's a number of ways: 1) Do you know where the reporter was located -- i.e., what bureau in which he was located? You could call that office and talk to him directly or the editor on duty; 2) There is a website in which AP takes questions from the public. You could use that: http://www.ap.org/pages/contact/contact.html 3) That website also lists a telephone number that you can call. 4) Are you sure your local newspaper didn't use the story?

What exactly is the ASSOCIATED PRESS and how does it work?
Is it a universal bank of knowledge? But if all newspapers and media get their news from the Associated press, then theres only one view on the news.
Many newspapers cite the Associated press as the writer.
Answer: I work for a news station and yes we do get some of our news from the AP but if you watch just the other three stations in my market, we sometimes all put a different spin on a story. The AP gives facts and quotes and it is up to the next person to do what they will with the info. The AP has offices all over the country, and basically it works just like a news station. There are reporters and they go cover news. They write their story and send it out to all media.

What did the Kennedys GIVE the ASSOCIATED PRESS?
How much money did the Kennedy CLAN pay the Associated press to run a story that she was already chosen as the candidate, when such a story is being flatly denounced by Patterson as a lie?
The AP reports that officials are saying Caroline Kennedy will be New Yorks next senator:
Officials say the daughter of the late President John F. Kennedy will be the governors choice to fill the New York Senate seat being vacated by Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Two people close to Gov. David Paterson tell The Associated press they believe Caroline Kennedy will be his choice, but the governor cautions hes still looking.
"The AP story is incorrect," Paterson spokesman Errol Cockfield said in response. "There is no front-runner, and the governor is not on the verge of any decision."
On Thursday, the governor disputed reports that he would hire a "caretaker" to keep the seat warm until the 2010 election.
Speaking to reporters at the Executive Mansion Thursday, Paterson said he intends to select someone with long-term interest in the job, not someone who would simply hold the seat until a special election next year.
Answer: Money is money..Wealth is wealth..Power.
Caroline knows that because she is a former president's
daughter, a Kennedy, a woman , she is a shoe in..
She is smart and she used it to suck up to Obama
and the current governor for Hillary's Senate position...
I really hope for the sake of the state of
New York that the current governor appoints someone else who
has done his job and has actually WORKED..for that senate seat...

Do you think theres an irresponsible sense of haste by the ASSOCIATED PRESS to declare Obama victory early?

That the media is trying to push an agenda dishonestly in hopes that it would effect delegates and voters decision prematurely?
Has the Associated press become another arm of dishonest jounalism?

Does your local paper rely too much on the ASSOCIATED PRESS?
Too many newspapers rely on the Associated press for their reporting. The Dow drop 733 points but the papers get make their local business write write the piece instead of Associated press.
If I ran a paper, I will not use the AP piece because I want to local feel to the Wall St. Meltdown. I use the wire as a source but due some local reporting on how the meltdown affected those in communities. What are feelings on this issue?
Answer: Unfortnately a lot of papers have turned to the AP for cost issues....it's cheaper to put AP articles in their paper rather than pay someone $10-$20 an hour to write for them.
I know a larger paper in our area has made some HUGE cutbacks in their spending and that included letting go five reporters...they now have so many AP articles in their paper it's not even funny.
However, I worked for a small town newspaper for 4 years and we absolutely did not have AP articles. We had to write EVERYTHING that went in the paper. And as far as national issues...we had to localize them by talking with area residents, businesses, etc.

The Associated press reported that in a survey of 4722 American youngsters aged 6 to 19, 15% were seriously overweight (a body mass index of at least 30; this index is a measure of weight relative to height). Calculate and interpret a confidence interval using a 99% confidence level for the proportion of all American youngsters who are seriously overweight.
Answer: ANSWER: 99% Resulting Confidence Interval for 'true mean'= [0.14, 0.16]
Why???
POPULATION PROPORTION, CONFIDENCE INTERVAL, NORMAL DISTRIBUTION
n: Number of samples = 4722
k: Number of Successes = 708
p: Sample Proportion [708/4722] = 0.15
significant digits: 2
Confidence Level = 99
"Look-up" Table 'z-critical value' = 2.580
This 'z-critical value' is a Look-up from the Table of Standard Normal Distribution. The Table is organized as a cummulative 'area' from the LEFT corresponding to the STANDARDIZED VARIABLE z. The Standard Normal Distribution is symmetric (called a 'Bell Curve') which means its an interpretive procedure to Look-Up the 'area' from the Table. For the Confidence Level (or Level of Confidence) = 99%, there is a LEFT 'area' OUTSIDE. And due to symmetry there is a RIGHT 'area' OUTSIDE. Using a Look-up from the Table involves adding and subtracting an 'area' which is equal to the Confidence Level. For STANDARDIZED VARIABLE z = 2.58, this corresponds to the LEFT 'area' half of the Confidence Level area = 0.5 * (1 - 99/100) = 0.01 by a Look-up in the Table for Standard Normal Distribution.
Or alternatively; use Excel function: NORMSINV(probability) Returns the inverse of the standard normal cumulative distribution. The distribution has a mean of zero, a standard deviation of one and is symmetrical.
99% Resulting Confidence Interval for 'true mean': p ± ('z critical value') * SQRT[p * (1 - p)/n]
= 0.15 ± 2.58 * SQRT[0.15 * (1 - 0.15)/4722] = [0.14, 0.16]
