Murky.org: Associated Plagiarism?

Murky reports that associated press admits that it plagiarises blogs.
associated press has admitted to taking large quotes from websites and not citing the source 'as we don't credit blogs'.

And I have to agree with Murky. If this is so, it's really cheeky and hypocritical. As he says: "fair use is fine, in scientific papers much use is made of quotations, but presenting the work of another as your own? Not good."
Check out Murky's post for the references.
