censorship

I agree - they too are indeed biased. 4 issues:

1) Part of their bias is what they leave out of their reporting (eg. problems with M.E. geopolitics and the roles of the US, Israel, Turkey, Russia &c in Syria and other conflicts)

2) Media bias check does not check on the lack of speculation of news media, but on the role of speculation and bias, of which AP and Reuters are least guilty

3) AP and Reuters do not focus on interpretation or a specific agenda (at least not as much as other news agencies do)

4) Propaganda is specifically about "promoting a political cause or point of view," which AP and Reuters are the least obvious about, if they do at all, and the majority of their reports are not obviously biased (even if they do seem favor some countries over others, which they don't do explicitly)
