Kennedy was dismissed by the AP after he bypassed military censors and was the first journalist to file a firsthand account of German officials surrounding unconditionally to Allied commanders at a former schoolhouse in Reims, France, signaling that World War II was over. Sixty-seven years later, AP President and Chief Executive Officer Tom Curley said that Kennedy was right to stand up to the censors, and should have been commended, not fired.
