A BLOG BOYCOTT OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS? “Well, that’s kind of bullying needs some pushback. Effective immediately, Newshoggers is boycotting AP’s content, including that from other sites that syndicate their stuff. We will find other sources – Reuters usually has the same stories and syndicates our BlogBurst feed on its websites without a problem – or we simply will find a different story to blog about. We urge you to join us in boycotting these bullies.”

Further thoughts from Jeff Jarvis: “I talked to a reporter this week about the embattled Associated Press and said three times that I didn’t want it to die. I might take that back.”
