The CBC is a propoganda channel.  So is FOX

Television doesn't have editorial.

How do classify Hannity, Carlson, and Rex Murphy when he was on the National?

Sorry Canadian TV doesn't.

I don't think Murphy was given time to air opinions on The National but maybe he was?

Ok.  Well I don't remember any controversy at all in those days.  Odd.

I don't think television warrants a mention in Canada, given that Murphy's ex-editorial piece was cancelled years ago (due to conflict of interest as I now recall) and we don't have more examples there.

If we want to talk about inherent bias then that's a different conversation than editorial content.

He expressed normal, uncontroversial conservative views then, back when those still existed.

Was he on every night ?  For how many minutes ?

I can do a formula for how much CONSERVATIVE EDITORIAL the CBC pushed on THE PEOPLE.

But I guarantee it's < the number of insect parts allowed as determined by the health dept.

So you think the CBC has some obligation to represent all views, no matter how batshit crazy?  Or should the CBC reflect mainstream Canada, like it does regardless of which government is in power?

Folks like Graham like to spew slogans about the cbc, but when asked specifics they will hide in their basements.

CBC broke multiple scandals by Liberal governments in the past.  That doesn’t sound like propaganda.  Maybe Graham can give us a specific example…..

He was on the National every week if I remember right as well as being a regular on various panels. He had his own show on CBC Radio one for two decades.
