AP vs Bloggers Causes Hell To Freeze Over

The ongoing battle between the mainstream media through its proxy the Associated Press (AP) and the blogosphere has caused hell to freeze over: Michelle Makin and Kos both supporting the same cause.

Thanks to a tip from Gabe Rivera, the allied forces against the AP according to the latest headlines on Memeorandum are broad indeed (click the image to enlarge).

The only difference between the different parties so far has been tactics. Many have been supporting the call first made by TechCrunch to boycott all AP stories, yet Kos is calling for the exact opposite, telling bloggers they should be quoting more AP stories, and large chunks of AP text to force AP to test its threats in a court of law.

We now await the next move from big media. See our previous story on AP vs Bloggers here.
