Did AP steal a story from a blogger and ABC News?

Most Americans would read this AP story and think, wow, that's a hell of a scoop. They'd read how AP bought the audio tape of a new book BEFORE it was available to the public (sneaky AP), and how AP scooped the rest of the media in uncovering that the executive director of the 9/11 Commission may have been corrupt.

Of course, what you wouldn't know is that the AP story comes 5 days after a blogger already broke this story (HE got the audio tape), and 5 days after ABC News already broke the story about the blogger breaking the story, and they confirmed it. And we posted the story, crediting the blogger and ABC, 3 days before AP came out with it's "scoop." But suddenly, five days after that, AP has a story declaring that THEY have this big scoop about the executive director of the 9/11 Commision, and they got it from a pre-sale audio tape (imagine that!), with no mention of the blogger and no mention of ABC, both of whom had the story first.
It's not the first time that AP has refused to credit the blogs for stories (though this time they also are refusing ABC News). I remember going back a couple of years now that AP had said that they wouldn't credit blogs for stories because, you know, you just can't trust those crazy bloggers. But does that stop them from stealing and reprinting our crazy stories as their own? Hmmm...

Now, in this case, is it possible that the AP had no idea that this blogger had the story 5 days before, and is it possible that AP had no idea that ABC News had the story about the blogger having story also 5 days before AP? Sure, it's possible that AP has never heard of ABC News, and it's possible that AP independently came up with the crazy idea of trying to buy the audio tapes of a new book before they were supposed to be on sale, just in the hopes of finding out that, oh I don't know, maybe the executive director was corrupt. But come on. They write the same story 5 days later, don't cite the previous stories, and pretend like it's a scoop?

Now who has a blogger ethics problem?
