The AP has decided in its infinite wisdom decided to proclaim the word ‘the’ a dehumanizing label.
The mentally ill.
The developmentally disabled.
The French.
THE AP.

Welp, THE AP really stepped in it this time.
And hey, it’s a fair question.
It's no longer appropriate to refer to them as "the press" or "The Associated Press."
They are "Associated People Suffering from Journalistic Tendencies."

Twitter should release its own journalistic guidelines. AP no longer deserves to serve as the primary arbiter on how journalists write.
