Associated Press Targets RFK Jr in “Quote of the Year”

Dec 28, 2023

The Associated Press (AP) has once again placed Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in their crosshairs by giving the “Quote of the Year” to 4 of his 9 siblings who chose not to support his candidacy.

The AP fails to mention that Kennedy has 105 family members, many of whom support him, so it’s less than 4% who are in opposition to his candidacy. Neither do they mention that those who came out against his candidacy have their salaries paid for by President Joe Biden’s administration. Nor do they explain what makes this quotation so “relevant” to top their list, but it does correspond with their apparent quest to discredit Kennedy’s candidacy.

The AP also fails to mention that their “news” organization is brought to you by Big Pharma as much of their work is underwritten by pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly through the Lilly Endowment. Honest Media has highlighted this reality and The Kennedy Beacon thoroughly documented this corruption in a three part series you can find here:

The Associated Press is part of the Trusted News Initiative (TNI), which Kennedy is suing for actively conspiring to suppress his voice and the organization he founded, Children’s Health Defense, from “going viral” on social media platforms. Leaked TNI documents revealed that the AP, BBC, Washington Post, and Reuters stated that while they are normally competitors, these organizations have a common goal in suppressing independent media from “going viral” because alternative media is the true enemy of the legacy media.

It is very clear that the Associated Press has fully abandoned any sense of being a “neutral” newswire and has mobilized to discredit Kennedy’s campaign rather than treating him as a legitimate candidate and covering why he is garnering so much support. Honest Media looks forward to drawing attention to the distortions, lies, misinformation, and disinformation that come from the Associated Press and other un-trusted news sources from the legacy media.
