    Oof. That’s egregious. So according to some people even though the CBC slips up and platforms this kind of moron, it’s still not “pluralistic/bipartisan” enough. That’s their whole deal: it will never be enough.

      I wouldn’t say they’re slip ups, they made a very deliberate push to APPEAR less partisan at the cost accurate portrayal of events. Even the titles have gotten a bit on the click bait side.

      I still consider CBC to be the best large scale news source in Canada and generally decent. But there’s some serious issues brewing.

        CBC has nerfed itself because it cares more about it’s budget than the integrity of the news. Same thing happened to NPR and now it’s just gardening shows.

        The budget needs to be hard lined and indexed, not under control of any political party. As it stands in 2025, it’s watered down timid garbage and the good journos have left or been fired. When Poilievre had a 30 point lead (LOL), they kissed his ass twice a week.
