I don't have much to add, came to wp to find out more, and there is nothing. This may be more important of other details. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.59.106.25 ( talk) 01:39, 26 July 2014
If you're a non-profit organization does that mean you do not pay taxes? Why does it say you profited one point something million dollars in 2017? 72.196.168.186 ( talk) 15:54, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
There are nonprofits whose purpose is to help their members make profits. Weird as that may seem. Midsummersday ( talk) 19:17, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
The subsecions are partially ordered. Is it possible to order all of them? Xx236 ( talk) 09:01, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
Allsides is criticized by Wikipedia as sometimes paying attention to public assessment (by voting) concerning the bias of particular sources. About that, Allsides has a disclaimer for those who do vote that reads in part "Community votes alone don't determine our ratings, but are valuable feedback and can prompt us to do more research." However, in the case of the Associated Press (AP), given its huge impact on other media, Allsides has done a bias determination that is rather more extensive and has recently changed its rating of AP from "center" to "lean left" citing enough specific cases that Allsides has medium confidence in that rating [1]. AP can be wildly inaccurate and inflammatory, my own issue with them is their historical propensity for calling Nazi concentration camps, "Polish Concentration Camps." [2] This was so inflammatory that the Polish Government criminalized such accusations, which law has now been repealed [3]. Given the historical support of AP for the Nazis [4] and their recent tendency to say nothing good about Trump and nothing bad about Biden, AP for me stands for "Anti-Polish." I consider AP biased, often inflammatory and unreliable. 207.47.175.199 ( talk) 15:07, 18 March 2023 (UTC) 207.47.175.199 ( talk) 15:07, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

The AP seems to almost exclusively refer to itself as "The Associated Press" rather than "the Associated Press" (or just "Associated Press"). Based on Wikipedia:Naming conventions (definite or indefinite article at beginning of name), this would seem to mean that the title of the AP's Wikipedia article should begin with a definite article. Is there any specific reason that it doesn't? Oooooooseven ( talk) 19:36, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
