Ethics, anyone?

I thought only non-traditional media (you know, us evil bloggers) would be capable of doing something so entirely unethical. I was, obviously, mistaken.

Greg Sargent reported late Wednesday morning he had found some differences between an Associated Press article written by David Espo as it appeared in many print publications as compared to how it appeared in the New York Post.

The Post rendition was apparently altered so the conservative-leaning and Rupert Murdoch-funded paper could carry an article "more appropriate" for their target audience. The edits, however, were discovered and AP journalist Espo is denying he wrote anything closely related to the Post's version.

A few hours later, there was a post at Brad Blog about a headline and content switch on the UPI and Washington Times.
