AP Admits Lacking Evidence in Bernie Moreno Smear

The Associated Press's allegations against Ohio Senate candidate Bernie Moreno unravel as it concedes lack of 'geolocation data' previously claimed.

The Associated Press admitted it lacks 'geolocation data' previously claimed to support allegations against Ohio Senate candidate Bernie Moreno.
Adult Friend Finder's founder clarified that the site's 2008 geolocation capabilities were limited to zip code entries, not precise locations.
Criticism mounts as AP's story on Moreno, backed by former President Donald Trump, faces scrutiny for its evidential basis.
Top Republicans and media figures have rallied behind Moreno, disputing the AP's reporting ahead of the Ohio primary election.
The incident raises concerns about journalistic standards and the impact of unverified allegations in political reporting.
