To those subscribers outside the U.S.: which construction is used commonly by 
your local media, "kph" or "km/h?"

  It's the fault of the editor for letting it through UNLESS the AP style guide 
says to use kph, which I doubt it does.
  Thus, they (the editors) should be made aware of their faults.

    Does anyone know an effective way to get the AP to start using km/h 
    rather than kph? The online news constantly tells about the various 
    hurricane wind forces as mph with a following kph in parens. Maybe it 
    is better than nothing.
