Australian Associated Press

Australian Associated Press was founded in 1935 "as a cooperative news gathering organisation for the mutual benefit of its 14 newspaper members."

On its website AAP states that its mission statement is "to provide the Australian media, private and public sector with a cost-effective, unbiased, reliable, comprehensive news and information resource." It also states that "the principles upon which AAP was founded over 70 years ago - impartiality, independence accuracy, reliability and speed - remain at its heart today. It still brings the world to Australians but now also takes the story of Australia to the world."
