No refs on the page for many years. I don't see anything elsewhere which would seem to meet the GNG. JMWt (talk) 19:18, 27 September 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Eddie891 Talk Work 00:22, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

 * - Note to closer for soft deletion: While this discussion appears to have no quorum, it is NOT eligible for soft deletion because it was previously discussed at AfD and the result was No consensus.
 * Previous discussions:
 * --Cewbot (talk) 00:02, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete No secondary discussion of this idea was found. There is a Dissociated Press |link, which is a blog, but not connected to this concept.  Deletion would prevent confusion and would be approrpriate for what is apparently a non-notable satire trope. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 00:50, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
 * That even has its own article; see Dissociated press. ▶ I am Grorp ◀  09:56, 5 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. Unsourced for years, couldn't find anything that could be used for sourcing. JML1148 ( talk &#124; contribs ) 06:14, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: I see no value to this mini-joke page with zero sources. Reading the previous AfD, I cannot fathom why that closer evaluated as 'no consensus'. ▶ I am Grorp ◀  09:56, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
 * 2006?! I scratch my head when I see these old discussions. It really was the wild west in wiki land back then. Oaktree b (talk) 13:49, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete as the entire article is unsourced. Even the one Internet Archive link there is only leads to a generic "under construction" website, so this may as well be fabricated.Cortador (talk) 13:03, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Ok, it's been used in the Warner Brothers cartoons, but it's clearly a spoof on the AP. Clever play on words, more suitable for a footnote in a cartoon biography somewhere. Delete for zero sourcing. Oaktree b (talk) 13:48, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
