1. All of 'em. It's just a row of overstuffed outhouses.

2. AP
drudge is simply a fading POS.
Faux is anything but fair,
while Politico surprises one every 10 stories by being right.

AP is much more subtle, therefore, much more dangerous. They pretend to be a NEWS outlet, when in fact, they are editorializing, and from a conservative point of view.

3. all of them..
but then you have to consider their sources as well..such as the U.S. government, and it's parade of representatives/ apologists. It really is hard to decipher what's going on, anywhere..but in my little corner of the world..and even that isn't so easy.

4. Politico and AP
They both try to actually look like real news organizations.

5. But only Drudge has a sweet hat and tries to look smart and hip.
But being the inevitable douchebag kills him every time.

6. Politico is largely full of shit, but occasionally comes up with a good article.
AP's analysis is entirely full of shit, but its wire reports are invaluable to the news industry.
Fox News and Matt Drudge have no redeeming factors.

7. All of 'em!
I have seen quite a few people link to Politico. If I recognize a link to that site I will NOT click on it. I think they are worthless flotsam.

8. I see the half truths and outright lies from Politico most every day on C-Span
Washington Journal has some mouthpiece from Politico on almost ever day - it makes you sick to listen to them spin the news to the advantage of conservatives.
