"To put it another way, this is a CBC senior director saying that it is not the job of the CBC to do fact checking at all. Something got published and we’ll just take what it says as fact as-is. For one, this is just peak journalistic laziness. For another, it’s extremely asinine to basically defend the practice of being extremely lazy in the process."
Wow... just... wow. Never in a million years would I have ever expected a news organization as large as the CBC to effectively tell me that it's not their job to do fact checking https://t.co/MmLdGHi4JT @Pagmenzies@cbcwatcher
@Pagmenzies Figured I'd give you a "hello" after I published that article. As for the people saying everything is fine even as the flames grow higher, denial is a heck of a drug.
@Pagmenzies To commemorate me counting all the way up to five lawsuits filed against the CRTC over the Online Streaming Act, I completely rewrote the lyrics to Mambo Number 5 just for funzies. https://t.co/Qgqm4LZqGZ
@SwBenzie@TikTokCanada@mgeist@Pagmenzies If this move was done to appease the American government (since they had their own anti-TikTok agenda), the copper tariffs that are getting slapped on Canada proved that doing things to appease the current administration is nothing more than a waste of time and effort.
@SwBenzie@TikTokCanada@mgeist@Pagmenzies The whole thing was stupid in my view. Outlets and government simply saying TikTok is some sort of spy machine without a shred of evidence, shutting down the physical presence while leaving the app running etc. https://t.co/JJ9CFr4qrh
@DreamHostCare Just wanted to say that Akrilvha W is awesome for quickly figuring out and fixing a recent issue I had on my site. It worked perfectly, so thank you!😍
Remember kids, advertising on American based digital platforms is only OK when the CBC does it. Political parties, however, not allowed. This according to the CBC "Fact checking team".

@rachaiello Literally no point in maintaining the advertising boycott. It completely and utterly failed to accomplish anything the boycott set out to do, everyone is more focused on the US insanity, and the only thing the boycott does now is shooting your own foot. Sensible to just give up
@SwBenzie Platforms are popular among younger generations. Welp, better do away with freedom of expression and all the economic activity and jobs that ensues. https://t.co/Mntqwr6zwn
Decided to boost the @OpenMediaOrg survey for those who want to participate in the current CRTC consultation on Canadian content. In short, it's a great thing to fill out if you can't create a fully custom response: https://t.co/sI5EhczqRG
