For weeks the lead story of almost every #CBCNews radio broadcast has been from Poilievre. Why? The lack of balanced all-party coverage is disturbing. #CBC forgets that it is a public broadcaster mandated to serve all #Canadians. #DoBetter #JournalismMatters

The Correspondent is a poignant film about an Australian journalist imprisoned in Egypt, highlighting press freedom. READ MY FULL REVIEW.
Quite literally why people are turning if journalists in their droves.
Don’t debate Fascists.
And certainly don’t vote for them.

Harvard's Nieman Fellows honor +972 Magazine with the Louis M. Lyons Award for "conscience and integrity in journalism" for their courageous reporting on Gaza.
The binational team was recognized for documenting the human cost of war, investigating military tactics including AI/drone usage, and highlighting civilian and journalist casualties and the targeting of working journalists in Gaza and the West Bank. Their independent, fact-based coverage provides critical perspectives often missing from mainstream narratives.

@cbcnews #JournalismMatters - why isn't the voting record in the House of Commons held up as a way of checking facts? Poilievre has never supported public dental care or childcare.

"New models of local #journalism are necessary for a new century. One way to address this is through the expansion of public #media, such as the CBC and/or community broadcasting." https://www.policyalternatives.ca/news-research/news-deprivation/
CCPA - · News deprivation - CCPAThe last 16 years have not been kind to local news outlets in Canada. Now 2.5 million Canadians don’t have access to local news. That’s a problem for our democracy.

Your history is vanishing.
When local news outlets disappear, so does your community’s history.
Political scandals? Forgotten.
Community struggles? Erased.

If history only remembers the powerful, we are rewriting the past to serve them.
Let’s talk about why losing media archives is a silent democratic crisis.

His analysis of the White House play in The Nation is not only brilliant and perspicacious, but also written delightfully and wittily to the point: https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/disgraceful-foreign-policy-spectacle-in-us-history/
So much one wants to quote ...
"In reality, as anyone with half a brain who was watching those events must surely realize, Trump and Vance were the ones who essentially defecated on their own carpet."

@SonofaGeorge Didn't think it through, perhaps? More importantly, @cbcnews continues to ignore international law and the UN Charter that states the illegality of such aggressive #imperialism. #CBC's framing does a huge disservice to #Canada. It promotes more ignorance and division. Shameful!
