Yes. Only the BC Liberals are doing this. The 400 NDP attack ads about Christy Clark I had to stomach while watching the hockey game last night were all filled with hope and love and confidence. Sure.

That's what happens when you're stuck in the 90's. There is a button on your remote now called mute. I use it all the time for all the political ads.
Never argue with an idiot, they will just drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

No, it simply sums it up for GlobalBC and the BC Liberals. I refuse to watch anymore of Keith Blow-dry's ridiculous, biased 'interviews' with the BC political leaders. That one with Christy this morning appeared to be taped 'the morning after', and his relentless pushing for Weaver to pick sides was pathetic.

LOL - this from the guy that wants everyone to read Layla what's her name and Norm Farrell's NDP drivel-laden blogs.

'Bias' - unfair influence.
A media personality who intentionally tries to influence the viewing audience is 'biased'. I am but one viewer who thinks such a person should not be allowed to unfairly influence B.C. voters. Do you not see the difference?

As for the above mentioned bloggers, perhaps you would be wise to take them more seriously than certain members of the MSM.

Not great for the people of BC.


Its even weirder that one of the parties think doing the same thing in 2013 will end up in with a different result.
It makes sense for the party that won to stay the course. It makes sense for the Greens to step up like they have, but the Same old NDP just do not understand.

This was their destiny when they realized no one wanted to be leader. No new blood, no new ideas. John did not get his position via votes, he was acclaimed because no one else wanted to do it.


I'd say your assessment is spot on.

That's the challenge these days isn't it? Where do you go for unbiased, objective journalism?
