Huh? No, I can simply take the news with a grain of salt. Quote I have a patch in that club. I'm the chief cook & bottle washer, secretary and the enforcer. Your beliefs have you instead of the other way around. Quote FYI there are less vaccine passport carriers in this group than there are rabbis in hezbollah. I'm willing to bet more people in this group carry fake passports just out of sheer spite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question to ask is what does objectivity look like, and how do we achieve it. Your post is an example of how there can be no objectivity. You believe you are objective portraying the climate change stories as "false" while in reality you are being totally subjective, ignoring daily reports from all parts of the world that prove you wrong.

Sunni in Iraq Protestant v. Catholic in Ulster we are in an epoch similar to the Thirty Years War the Western World is succumbing to a schism like the one which has destroyed the Muslim World we haven't been at a place in the West like this since the inception of the Treaty of Westphalia in 1648 thus is the institution which is collapsing here the Westphalian Nation State itself Edited July 22, 2022 by Dougie93 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any stories that you saw there which look bad now, with the benefit of hindsight? In your own words, what's the worst piece of journalism that you ever saw on the leftist news channels? I don't view Hardner & Eyeball as being in the same class as those others Hardner & Eyeball are old school Liberal & NDP I just don't think they realize that those two parties have been captured by something evil and I am not a Conservative the Conservatives have been captured by the same evil none the less, I have a lot of time for Hardner & Eyeball because at the end of the day, I think they have good faith I think they are naive, and perhaps misguided but I don't think they are evil, I don't think they have been captured as younger leftists have been 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queenmandy85 Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) "Do You Feel Like Everything That You See on CBC and CNN is 100% Legitimate?" CBC yes. If the NDP is calling it a right wing pulpit and the CPC calles it a left wing propoganda organ, it must be hitting the mark. CNN, don't know. I don't watch it.
