So it’s business as usual then … CBC reportedly considering dropping requirement for journalistic objectivity

CBC is reportedly considering dropping an age-old requirement for its reporters to be objective — at least for those from a visible minority group.

The revelation was shared this week in an editorial by the Quebec newspaper La Presse. Senior editor François Cardinal wrote that CBC was considering an internal demand by its reporters that the broadcaster abandon its current standards requiring reporters and staff to remain neutral on political issues.

I can’t tell the difference can you? The fact they’re even considering this is reason enough to shut it all down.

William Watson: CBC searched high and low for Marxist profs to speak ill of the Queen

It must have been an awful dozen days for the woke folk who run the CBC Newsroom. In the first hours, the Queen’s death was very sad so, given most people’s quite human reaction, there was little opportunity for the ideological instruction, especially on matters of race, indigenousness and gender flux, that increasingly dominates what comes out of the corporation. And then, strangely, it turned into a good-news story, as the focus shifted to the Queen’s having hardly ever turned a foot wrong or spoken a hurtful or unwise word during 70 — seventy! — years of what only an ignoramus would deny had been dedicated service.

Are You A Dangerous Right Wing Extremist Who Denies Men Can Have A Baby? You Might Be Conservative Commentator Ben Shapiro Says CBC!

‘It’s a slippery slope’: How young men fall into online radicalization

“It started out pretty benign,” he recalls. “You’re watching something about teen fashion and then the next thing you know, the algorithm would push you to a Ben Shapiro video.”

Though Shapiro describes himself as a conservative political commentator, his views are controversial — and some are outright discriminatory. He’s suggested, for example, that transgender people suffer from a “mental disorder.”

But he has a combined 9.4 million subscribers and followers on YouTube and Twitter, many of whom are young people, like Brown was when he got pushed in Shapiro’s direction.

They do suffer from a mental disorder and the CBC is a dangerous enabler attempting to criminalize dissent. Why are our tax dollars supporting gender extremists on CBC?

Justin’s CBC horrified to discover efforts to normalize exposing children to drag queens meets with resistance

Libraries in Canada hit by wave of hate, threats, as right-wing groups protest all-age drag events

Family-friendly drag events across Canada, many hosted by municipal libraries, have been targeted by a deluge of hateful comments and threats during Pride month, prompting multiple police investigations and renewed concerns about the safety of the LGBTQ community.

More than half a dozen libraries and drag performers, from Saint John to Victoria, reported being inundated online and over the phone by homophobic slurs and, in some cases, threats of violence.

Drag Story Hour events are popular at many libraries in the country, and usually feature a performer in drag reading children’s books about inclusion. They are often held in collaboration with local LGBTQ associations and have caused only minor controversy in the past. 

Family Friendly? Because exposing children to drag queens is normal for the CBC.

When the national broadcaster is pedophile adjacent it’s time to pull the plug on funding.

Anti-Israel CBC Culinary Radio Show Violated Journalistic Standards

HonestReporting Canada is pleased to share that, subsequent to a complaint we lodged with CBC last year regarding an anti-Israel segment that their radio program “Unforked” broadcast, Ombudsman Jack Nagler upheld our complaint and recognized that the episode violated their Journalistic Standards and Practices.

In a report dated March 23, 2022, Ombudsman Nagler responded to our complaint about a July 5 episode of “Unforked,” a show which describes itself as “Picking apart the food that we eat to reveal the culture and politics baked into it,” which covered the topic of “gastronationalism” and hummus, the beloved chickpea dish enjoyed by peoples throughout the Middle East and around the world.

Do we really need to be funding the CBC’s diversity?

A Billion tax dollars a year is wasted on this crap – “Numbers suggest many American protest convoy donors also gave to Trump, Republicans”

Out of 200 of the top American donors to the convoy protest that paralyzed downtown Ottawa and blocked parts of the Canada-U.S. border, half have names matching those of donors to Republican candidates, the Republican Party or former U.S. President Donald Trump, according to analysis by CBC News.

A search of the U.S. Federal Election Commission (FEC) campaign finance database for 200 of the top American donations to GiveSendGo’s convoy crowdfunding campaign shows that 50 per cent of those donors have names and zip codes matching those of people who have donated in the past to the Republican Party, one of its political action committees or Republican candidates.

Terry Glavin: The CBC’s gleeful promotion of its ‘Genocide Games’ coverage is shameful

 

It’s a paradox.

Canadians keep telling public-opinion pollsters they’ve had quite enough of the gruesome Chinese police state and would rather have nothing at all to do with the Beijing Winter Games, which officially kick off this week. With all the national shouting and divisive contentions over COVID-19 containment, inflation and a real estate industry drunk on relentlessly rising housing costs, it’s the one big thing Canadians seem to agree upon.

CBC creates faux outrage at inability to Doxx anonymous donors to Freedom Convoy – Speculates Russia’s dark hand at work

Critics call for new rules for online fundraisers after protest convoy takes anonymous donations

Critics are calling on the federal government to introduce new rules for online fundraising campaigns after a fundraiser for this weekend’s protest in Ottawa against vaccine mandates raised millions of dollars — in part from anonymous donors and people using fictitious names.

Green Party parliamentary leader Elizabeth May said the GoFundMe fundraiser for the protest convoy raises concerns about whether such campaigns could be used by big businesses or foreign state actors to circumvent Canada’s political financing rules.

“If this isn’t worrying, it certainly exposes a possibility that is very worrying, which is that you can be not a political organization, not registered with Elections Canada but find the right kind of dog whistle and put up a GoFundMe campaign,” she said.

Elizabeth May? A Yankee who along with US NGO funding has worked for decades to undermine Canada’s Oil & Gas industry is worried about “foreign interference”. The gall.

Breaking: CBC Very Upset That Smearing Anonymous Donors To Trucker Convoy As Racists etc Doesn’t Ruin Lives As Hoped

Large number of donations to support convoy came from aliases, unnamed donors

Many donors used satirical aliases, including ‘Justin Trudeau’ and ‘Theresa Tam’

At least a third of the donations to the GoFundMe campaign set up to support the convoy of trucks headed to Ottawa to protest vaccine mandates came from anonymous sources or were attributed to fake names, according to an analysis by CBC News.

While thousands of Canadians and Canadian businesses have dipped into their pockets to fund the cause, thousands of other donors to the campaign are listed simply as “Anonymous.”

William Watson: Diversity from A to B

The CBC’s conception of ideological diversity apparently now ranges from far-left to hard-left

Tara Henley’s “ Why I quit the CBC ” article in Tuesday’s National Post confirmed the worst suspicions of conservative viewers and listeners. To work at CBC, Henley writes, “is to sign on, enthusiastically, to a radical political agenda that originated on Ivy League campuses in the United States and spread through American social media platforms that monetize outrage and stoke societal divisions. It is to pretend that the ‘woke’ worldview is near universal.”

GOLDSTEIN: Former CBC staffer Tara Henley said what many Canadians think

Tara Henley’s takedown of the CBC as a woke, state-funded palace of the absurd, while eloquently written, really didn’t say anything its critics haven’t been saying for years.

It was just that this time a former CBC journalist said it. Henley reflected the view of many Canadians who today consider the CBC unwatchable, given its liberal and Liberal bias.

GOLDSTEIN: Former CBC journalist lowers the boom on its ‘radical agenda’

A veteran CBC journalist who worked as a TV and radio producer and occasional on-air commentator said Monday she quit the state-funded broadcaster last month because its “radical political agenda” made it impossible to do good journalism.


Golly, another of those right wing “conspiracy” theories proves true.

The CBC spews Liberal party propaganda. Propaganda is designed to humiliate the target and is all about about coercion and control. If the CBC had it’s way you would be anally raped live on the National by transgender ISIS lesbians.
