I'm afraid anthropoid is better.
I'd guess:
ES = Er...Sucks.
AP means the newsagency Associated Press.
The ES is an identification code for ... not for Spanish: besides in English, AP has only services in German, French, Italian - but not on Spanish ... Economy Service.
(Media pay AP and newsagencies in general, for their [different] services.)
(That's interesting Walter, both that they have different levels for articles, and that they have services in Italian but not Spanish.)
According to Walter's opinion, ES = Economy Service?
It seems still remaining a puzzle.

I can't give quote for the AP abbreviations - it was just a guess.
