waldo 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 already noted... unfortunately it got caught up in the gun registry/evil CBC trolling-dervish... you know, the complete trashing and watering down of threads with unrelated bullshit from the Saipanese troll-extraordinaire Regulations committee drops advice to CRTC on false and misleading news Facing mounting public pressure, the Standing Joint Committee for the Scrutiny of Regulations, a committee of the House and Senate, agreed Thursday to withdraw advice to the CRTC to water down a regulation prohibiting the broadcast of false and misleading news.Some observers now expect the CRTC, which is against the proposal, to withdraw or abandon the regulatory change it put forward in a consultation on Jan. 10. The amendment would change the commission’s prohibition on the broadcast of false and misleading news so that it would instead be a prohibition on “any news that the licensee knows is false or misleading and that endangers or is likely to endanger the lives, health or safety of the public.” latest sweet tweets advise that in response to the committee withdrawal, CRTC chair von Finckenstein states the CRTC will drop the proposed, 'false and misleading' amendment score: True and Honest News => 1, FoxNewsNorth => 0 Quote
