        So 30 year old books that talk about press during wartime being propagandist in some cases, with bias in others and heavily politiced in most, sure.

        Do you have a source for stating AP spreads propagand routinely nowadays?

          These 30 year old books describe the mechanics of western media, which last I checked, haven't substantially changed today. If anything, propaganda has ramped up as a result of a proxy war with Russia.

          another comment in this very thread has the sources regarding AP specifically https://lemmy.ml/post/18538110/12620401

          during wartime

          please point to the years where the U.S. has not been at war.
