File this under "No Kidding"

A PR firm's annual media survey shows: Thirty-four percent of journalists do not care if information is presented in AP Style.
 
(Also revealed: "While the number of journalists who do not care if information is presented in AP style [34 percent] was surprising, the majority did agree that following AP writing guidelines is important [66 percent]." I think this is called simple subtraction.)

When I see either PR people or journalists worrying about such things, I am unpleasantly reminded of the "type in that press release" mentality.
