An Inconvenient Question
No one at the CBC reads The Tea Makers. Right? I asked a simple question – “where is the opinion piece that you say Jian Ghomeshi wrote for The Guardian?” And that Jian Ghomeshi himself says that he wrote for The Guardian. The answer to that question would reveal a lot about today’s CBC. Even […]

“We can’t pay them the same money but there’s a freedom of expression here they might not get in the States.” – Kirstine Stewart’s sales pitch to Canadian writers living in L.A.
Another Hour
Many happy, shiny people at today’s CBC Fall Schedule announcement. Including Strombo, who appears to have a “will-never-be-canceled” contract, returning in September for another tiresome 7th season. George was strangely mum with reporters, only willing to hint that major changes are being made to The Hour. Especially strange since during the Q & A with […]

Its purpose is not to simply publish the endless droning of a braggart, who, as it turns out, never actually walked on the moon (I’m looking at you, Sting!).

It’s been three months since I first began asking Jian, his staff, and now the CBC to answer a simple question. What editorial/opinion piece written by Jian was published by The Guardian? It says very clearly on his Wikipedia page that … He is also a writer whose editorials and opinion pieces have been published […]
the environment between George’s ears
Sarah Westwood walks with George along the Seawall George is asked what next for the campaign “A Million Acts of Green”. He uses the term “we”, without clarifying that the campaign was created in conjunction with CISCO, who wanted to experiment with social network marketing, and chose the issue and provided resources and funding. That’s […]

Swain Song
Heads up Breaking News Desk! Is Diana Swain, Gemini award winning host and pint sized cutie jumping to Global? Perhaps to fill the soon to be vacated Kevin Newman chair or maybe she’s just sick of the shit. The long suffering CBC Toronto Local show and its ability to generate ulcers for any and all […]
