Should we stop the taxpayers' bailout of CBC?

Yes, they need to make it on their own

No one here to defund oops, defend the Communist Broadcast Corporation?

Yeah! Get your wallets out as well as show support with a blue thumb up for the CBC.



Or should the poll be changed to seeing more coverage of Trudeau's hair? :up:

I think they are using up all their resources just trying to keep JTs head above water. A thankless and endless job. There’s very little steam left over to defend JTs mouthpiece, the CBC
Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. There’s a certain point at which ignorance becomes malice, at which there is simply no way to become THAT ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.

They’re probably also waiting for the midweek email with the latest updated talking points.

Here's a good article about how CBC is the real threat to private Canadian media.

It basically boils down to CBC taking $1.4 BILLION in subsidies then steals advertising revenue away from the private companies all the while offering "free" services to their followers.

It's time for Canada's media executives to demand CBC stop using their $1.5 billion in annual subsidy to compete with the private sector

And there it is in even bigger print then ever before.
This has been on their site ever since that cop down south put his knee on a drug addict's back, but now this pic is full screen.
I've never clicked on it, no interest but CBC keeps pushing their agenda.

Blech.

I tried to listen to CBC radio off and on for a few days. Couldn't stomach the maudlin emotion-laden manipulative storytelling. And that was the "news"! Switched it back to another station yesterday after they worked "climate change" into two "stories" in a row.

We're not funding variety with taxpayer money, though: we only fund one radio station with taxpayer money. We get to stop supporting stations except for the only one funded with our tax dollars - the one most controlled by our government.

Understood.

Our opinion differs on this matter.

Yes, the delirious zealotry of the CBC (and other government "news" networks like the BBC etc) to work the man-made climate change fraud into every single story really is stomach-churning. There should be no confusion as to why insanely stupid young people are throwing soup on Van Gogh paintings and setting themselves on fire (accidentally which makes it kind of funny) on tennis courts at major tennis tournaments, all in the name of "you don't get it, we're all going to die!!!!!!" Of course these easily impressionable idiots are going to be induced into these reprehensible acts, because of the scum running the 24 hour fear mongering about fairy tales on the CBC. Just such evil awful people.
