Papers dropping the AP like a sack of rotting groundhogs

Way to go, Ass. Press!

The Star Tribune joins a string of other daily papers who have either given notice or revealed plans to cut the service in recent months.

Those include the Spokesman-Review of Spokane, Wash.; the Post Register of Idaho Falls; the Bakersfield Californian; the Yakima Herald-Republic and Wenatchee World, both in Washington, the Valley Forge Herald-Picayune, the Daily Nosebag of Iowa City, the Maswegan Poultry Tribune, the St Mertle Herald-Tribune-Record, Indiana's Post-Intelligencer, the North Bumfuck Probe-Register of North Dakota, the Miami Standard-Review Times and the Waco Herald-Post-Record-Tribune Ledger-Review.
The recent decisions to drop AP service stems from a planned rate change, say papers, and not from the fact that the service suddenly sucks major ass.

Not to mention repuke dick.
