Don Newman, the Mike Duffy of CBC, writes/drones on and on this morning about how we don't need a Fox News type station in Soviet Canuckistan.
Screw you Mr. Newman.
We need as much media as possible, Mark Fowlerish, open skies and I hope that Quebecor, Pierre-Karl Peladeau and Kory Teneycke get their license.
Competition is great. In fact if we had real competition in TV in this town I think that both you and the Duffster would be competing anchors in Moose Jaw, Moncton or North Bay not two dudes who fluked their way onto the national scene coz they worked cheap.
WFDS
Hear, hear!
ReplyDeleteI concur wholeheartedly!
As an aside, I am so glad I no longer have to listen to Newman say "brooooooooooooadcast".
Wow!
ReplyDeleteA hard core leftist who is calling a spade a spade.
Don Newman loves Al Jazeera yet hates Fox News?
The far left in this country needs to be sent packing to China.
"the Mike Duffy of CBC"? You don't know what you're talking about.
ReplyDeleteNeed? How does need come into it?
ReplyDeleteIn a country where freedom of expression and freedom of the press are fundamental rights, it is not government's -- or Newman's -- place to decide whether we "need" Fox News Canada.
wow a comment actually got published here. Must strongly support the bloggers own view! Oh look, it does! This blog sucks.
ReplyDeleteWow so you attracted Jim (who cant find the channel changer or something) and anonymous who seems to be extremely contemptuous of freedom of speech and the press.
ReplyDeleteInteresting catch... was it what you were expecting?

ReplyDelete"Duffy joined CBC radio's Parliament Hill bureau in 1974, and became a reporter for The National in 1977." (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Duffy)
He only joined CTV in 1988.
