Breitbart: AP Slammed for Saying Car Drove into Crowd at Christmas Market
The Associated Press faced backlash on X for its wording regarding a car attack at a Christmas market in Germany, where a man reportedly from Saudi Arabia drove into a crowd, resulting in fatalities and injuries. Critics pointed out that the phrasing suggested the car acted on its own, obscuring the driver's intent.
