I wouldn't classify the AP as the print media, but again, more power to your bias.Sure...why make things up?
i wasn't. eleven is eleven.
i didn't catch the hired part, which is immaterial as far as i'm concerned.
god knows the print media aren't hiring anyone.
Is the Associated Press biased?
Yes.AP spokesman Paul Colford said the organization, with more than 4,000 employees, and 49 Pulitzer Prizes earned for asking the hard questions, has the luxury of putting multiple reporters on major stories. He confirmed 11 people worked on the story, but not all full-time. He refused to say, however, if similar number of journalists were assigned to review other political books, or if Palin has been treated differently.
"One byline appeared on AP's Fact Check. Others at AP with knowledge of specific areas covered in the book contributed in varying degrees to preparing the Fact Check quickly on Friday," his statement read.
Reviewing books and holding public figures accountable is at the core of good journalism, but the treatment Palin's book received appears to be something new for the AP. The organization did not review for accuracy recent books by the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, then-Sen. Joe Biden, either book by Barack Obama released before he was president or autobiographies by Bill or Hillary Clinton. The AP did more traditional news stories on those books.
FOXNews.com - AP Turns Heads for Devoting 11 Reporters to Palin Book 'Fact Check'
Remember Acorn, two college students took them down,they are amatures, The Associated Press is much toooooooooooooo busy FACT CHECKING Palin's book.
If you consider there were 10 others who contributed to the story in varying degrees because they had knowledge of one or more areas covered by the text the same as hiring 11 fact checkers then more power to your bias.
gee, one plus ten comes up to eleven for me.
go figure.
They hired 11 fact checkers for Going Rogue and 5 for Climategate. I doubt if even one checked BHO's books. Yes they are biased.
Reality has no bearing on the Liberals inability to use logic or comprehend facts.
By the way they had NO ONE fact check any of Obama's books, did not fact check Biden's book or either of the Clinton books.

You may not have been dishonest by the letter, but you were dishonest in spirit. Saying that the AP had eleven people factchecking the book infers that eleven people were focused on drilling down into the book and that simply wasn't the case.

Getting pissed off because you got caught in a lie only exhibits more of your faulty character.

The claim hasn't been that 11 people worked on the story at some point. It was that a team of 11 people were assigned to the story (which implies they were working on it full-time).

Telling me to "shove it up [my] ass" surely isn't calm, cool, and collected.
