Shakeyhands Posted February 23, 2011 Report Posted February 23, 2011 Check the first one and I see wrong footage on news. Gee, happen more than weekly on CBC. Then we have loooong clip of Ignatieff speaking with short "reply" of Harper, video OK but sound is CBC anchor "translating" what was Harper saying. NO CBC lie. Just the usual SPIN. (maybe) What?

bush_cheney2004 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Posted February 23, 2011 LOL. Yes. I'm squirming. So anyway, any proof of the CBC broadcasting false or misleading news? None that you will ever believe. All hail the Fifth Estate! Quote Economics trumps Virtue.
Shakeyhands Posted February 23, 2011 Report Posted February 23, 2011 None that you will ever believe. All hail the Fifth Estate! I'll believe it when I see it. You and a few others have accused the CBC of misleading or false news, Saipan claims it happens all the time. I've yet to see one shred of proof that they have. If you go back a few replys you'll see where Saipan asked me for proof about Fox News broadcasting, I provided it easily with a quick search. You would think that it would be as simple for anyone to come up with proof on the CBC news, wouldn't you? Especially when the claims are made that the CBC news are rife with them... I'm going to go ahead and assume you have, and weren't able to find anything, how embarrassing for you all. If there is proof, please provide it. If not, stop claiming that CBC broadcasts false or misleading news. Quote "They muddy the water, to make it seem deep." - Friedrich Nietzsche

bush_cheney2004 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Posted February 23, 2011 ...If there is proof, please provide it. If not, stop claiming that CBC broadcasts false or misleading news. The CBC broadcasts false news...proof has been provided. Hell, the CBC even retracted stories after doing so. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

bush_cheney2004 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Posted February 23, 2011 Please point to it. OK...here you go CBC Report Elusive to the Truth In an April 29 CBC.ca report about Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayaad's "statehood tactics" apparently "winning support" among West Bank Palestinians, CBC.ca erroneously claimed that: "Statehood has proved elusive for the Palestinians, in part because Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has refused to endorse a two-state solution and has said established Jewish settlements must be allowed in areas like the West Bank to expand for natural growth of settler families." Contrary to this statement, at a prime-time address delivered at Bar-Ilan University near Tel Aviv on June 14, 2009, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu endorsed the two-state solution, thereby supporting the creation of a Palestinian state. After HonestReporting Canada brought this matter to the attention of senior producers at CBC.ca, the following correction was promptly issued: "An earlier version of this story said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has refused to endorse a two-state solution. In fact, Netanyahu has endorsed a two-state solution but with several conditions attached." ...now you will explain why it is not false news, right? http://www.honestreporting.ca/news_article_name/corrclarobfus54890.aspx Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

What is false or misleading about that? The issue is broadcasting false or misleading news, in this case an error was made and a retraction/correction was made. If they hadn't made the correction, I would have agreed with you. Now you are really reaching. btw, did Saipan thank you for trying to run with this? It's a good thing cause it wasn't looking good for him at all. Edited February 23, 2011 by Shakeyhands Quote "They muddy the water, to make it seem deep." - Friedrich Nietzsche

Well, hell...if that's your benchmark than anybody can just issue a "retraction"....even Faux News. At the time, the story was materially false, was proven to be false, and purposely mislead. The CBC has a long history of excusing their false stories with nonsense about it being a "early version", and interestingly, makes a lot of "errors" when it comes to Israel and Palestine.

Saipan Posted February 23, 2011 Report Posted February 23, 2011 Please point to it. I'll be glad to. I'll bring fresh ones too. I'll be watching spinner Wendy Mesly, she's usually full of BS. But aren't you calling it just "opinions"?? Btw, how much do American taxpayers spend on FOX? (I don't see FOX, only hear about it) Quote

Absolutely, I'M not unreasonable in the least. If an honest mistake is made and it is corrected, all is good. Everyone is entitled to make mistakes.... In fact wasn't it you that said this earlier? So.... if you have proof that: "The CBC has a long history of excusing their false stories with nonsense about it being a "early version", and interestingly, makes a lot of "errors" when it comes to Israel and Palestine."

Smallc Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 I do have to say, there is some bias in this Star article: Foreign Minister Lawrence Cannon, on a trip to meet his Italian counterpart, was due to greet the evacuees on the flight in Rome, but the ill-considered photo opportunity was not to be.-------------- The government official said “we are evaluating many options.” Those could include hitching rides with other fleeing foreigners. http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/article/944120--canada-s-libya-bound-evacuation-flight-cancelled?bn=1 The first was unnecessary, and the second is trying to portray the government as incompetent.

No need for potrayal when it is obviously true. The Conservative government is the worse in Canada's history - major debt spending offending every element of government and consistently being WRONG.. in their prior assesssments, they are morons. The only thing they are good at is wasting peoples taxes and turning Canada into a police state. I spit on them. Edited February 24, 2011 by William Ashley Quote I was here.

Scotty Posted February 26, 2011 Report Posted February 26, 2011 This is kind of stupid, and I'm surprised no one has noted it yet, but the CRTC has backed off its plan to change the rules. CRTC ditches plan to allow fake news So here's my take on it. For ten years the House of Commons committee has been telling the CRTC that in light of a Supreme Court decision, this regulation is now unconstitutional. After ten years of bureaucratic inertia, the CRTC finally announces plans to change the regulation. But now, the committee has a majority of opposition members, and they see the opportunity to portray the Tories as some evil cabal that wants to bring in false news. They make a big fuss. All sorts of people who don't know any better respond and make a big fuss and send in indignant emails and notes, and the CRTC then backs off. Yayyy! They get to keep a regulation which has never been used and is unconstitutional anyway! Yaayyy! See all the clowns in the Globe and Mail celebrate their great victory! Quote It is an inverted moral calculus that tries to persuade the world to demonize one state that tries its civilized best to abide in a difficult time and place, and rides merrily by the examples and practices of dozens of states and leaderships that drop into brutality every day without a twinge of regret or a whisper of condemnation. - Rex Murphy

Why don't you try backing up your claims with.. oh I dunno.. some facts? Any proof to what you are saying? Quote "They muddy the water, to make it seem deep." - Friedrich Nietzsche
