<..> But the AP wrote last Friday that Bennett's position in Foulston's office might be a "liability" for him, because Scott Roeder, the anti-abortion activist who murdered Tiller, said that he did so because at one point Foulston declined to prosecute Tiller.

<..> "He didn't get prosecuted so obviously he had to be shot?," asked Maddow. "So says Operation Rescue, and so writes down the Associated Press, thus resulting in newspapers all over the country printing this absolutely wackadoo, uncontested more-than-insinuation that an abortion doctor was murdered in Kansas, because what? He needed killing? Because he hadn't been 'brought to justice?'"

Maddow called on the AP to retract the article.

"The AP besmirched Tuesday's Kansas primary with this trash that they published about it this past Friday," she said. "I haven't said anything until now because I keep expecting them to retract it. Before this week is up the Associated Press ought to retract what they published and they ought to apologize."

The AP leans right, that's well known. This time they leaned so far they fell over.
Rachel is right, they need to apologize.

Cheers to R. Maddow. She is consistently right and consistently courageous.
