Facing a tough economic environment and threats from newspapers to drop the service, the AP said it will cut member assessments by another $9 million next year, for a total of nearly $30 million. It will also consider cutting rates for broadcast members, too. “It is time to consider fundamental change to address members’ rapidly changing needs and to assure that AP remains the world’s leading news organization,” said William Dean Singleton, chairman of the AP Board of Directors and CEO of MediaNews.
