@awi_sinha why?

@DeeEhRosenberg @JesseBrown parody is only a step removed from reality

[Elly Alboim @ealboim]

@KenBoessenkool Diabetics would have a view

[Elly Alboim @ealboim]

@globepolitics That implies the government setting the mandate and duration , otherwise what is there to announce? Who would take that on without being involved in both?

[Elly Alboim @ealboim]

@acoyne Same fact base. Different narratives and framing. Replicated throughout CdnPoli today. Reflects the journalistic need to provide conclusions about the meaning of even transient events

[Elly Alboim @ealboim]

@RickAnderson Important context for the refund the CBC proposal. Its place in the media ecosystem is increasingly important.

@stephenlautens my god. Is this written by her alone? Did others not see it and say something?

[Elly Alboim @ealboim]

@sunlorrie @MAAWLAW @TheHerleBurly You might want to read the piece. And its emphasis on a diversity of voices.

[Elly Alboim @ealboim]

@MAAWLAW @TheHerleBurly Strange distinction. I would have thought putting this in a context of a healthy democracy clearly implied truthful content commonly shared. Calling this arrogant is puzzling. Where suppressing dissent comes into it is baffling. This sounds partisan not analytical.

@theToddHirsch didn't everybody do that?

My take on journalism, public policy, politics and the CBC

@cselley i get that point. Makes scheduling really difficult. But in this case, they cut away to the Raptors. Understand it was newsworthy at some level but they kept with it for a virtual eternity as they showed SILENT pictures of the VW speeches in a split screen

@AGMacDougall @OttawaCitizen This is a very important column. Well worth reading and thinking about

[Elly Alboim @ealboim]

Amazing editorial decision at CBC News Network. Two governments announce a $13 billion investment and the CBC carries 30 minutes of a Toronto Raptors news conference instead.

@cwaddell27 @KeithBoag @PierrePoilievre ...2 when the Mulroney government objected to our Meech Lake coverage and tried to have me removed , CBC management rebuffed the pressure. I continued in the job for another three years

[Elly Alboim @ealboim]

@cwaddell27 @KeithBoag @PierrePoilievre I was CBC TV parliamentary Bureau chief from 1977 to 1993 through the emergence of the PQ, the constitutional patriation, the free trade debate and election and the Meech Lake and Charlottetown processes. I was never given editorial instructions directly or indirectly by govt...2

@MAAWLAW @acoyne because five weeks is just too long for a reasoned, evidence-based decision?

[Elly Alboim @ealboim]

@acoyne Read the annual report which lists current assets.

[Elly Alboim @ealboim]

@acoyne It s not the information about costs that s the problem, it s the media propensity to assign negative news framing to certain costs as a class of spending regardless of context.

@cselley @nationalpost Not mad just disappointed. I was a loyal subscriber but stopped a while ago. There is just too much over the top, preachy writing that unfortunately is predictable and relentlessly provocative.
