Rebel News Won Right to Attend G7

[CdnFox]

WOW! Mark Carney’s lawyers blink, allow Rebel News into the G7! - Rebel News

Well this should be good for a laugh or two    I doubt they'll sit back in the corner and respectfully watch the proceedings quietly.  At the debates they hustled like crazy and got a few of the questions spots sewn up while many of the other reporters were mingling, and that's what started the fireworks that time.

Right?  

The 'rebel' is this weird duality of an existance where they are simultaneously complete tabloid trash and also extremely good and uncovering real news and poking holes in the establishment veil.  

"BY CLAIMING OUR RIGHTS TO BE AT THE DEBATES DESPITE EVERY ATTEMPT TO KEEP US OUT, AND BY DOING OUR JOB AND STANDING IN LINE PATIENTLY TO GET THE MOST QUESTIONS OUT, AND ASKING UNCOMFORTABLE QUESTIONS INSTEAD OF THE USUAL DRIVEL, WE HAVE PROVEN THAT SMALL INDEPENDENT MEDIA IS BOTH RELEVANT AND CAPABLE IN THIS AGE AND FREEDOM OF THE PRESS CANNOT BE STOPPED!!  Also, we're selling conservative memberships from a van out front.

The Rebel completely lacks finesse and polish.

Even when they're saying things that I completely agree with, I find them impossible to watch. Ezra needs a Xanax or whatever it's called.

Yeah, I like Ezra when he was with the sun news network and I liked the sun news network except for the guy with the handlebars mustache which was like having your news read to you by a walrus, but they are difficult to watch now. I catch their occasional story just because like I said every now and then they really hit one out of the park. And I do appreciate that even though I don't agree with them all the time they're out there really pushing hard to legitimize smaller independent news sources.

True north and Juneau are a little better. Especially True North, I really find that actually to be a good journalistic medium for the most part

Just crazy how Canadian authorities abuse and mistreat Rebel News folks like David Menzies.

Yep. But Rebel has been very successful in fighting back in that regard. 

Fact is whether you like them or not, the moment the gov't gets to decide who is and who is not "the media" your democracy is in trouble.

I followed how they were treated in Australia too, especially during COVID lockdowns. Just insane.

If Jim Acosta was treated like a Rebel News reporter, CBC would call the Trump administration Nazis. 

I like how CBC calls him "A man who identifies as a reporter" 😂

It's like Dylan Mulvaney calling Jim Carrey "A person who identifies as a man".

Pull the same shit they did at the election debate and Trumps guards will shoot LOL

Carney? Trump? any of the other gov't officials attending including tonnes of staff and the like? 

Do you honestly believe there's no one at the G7 worth interviewing?  Did you hit your head again today?

The gov't literally just promised them the right to ask questions. 

FFS i know reading gives you headaches but if you're going to comment on an article at least READ it first.

Not that you care about biased nonsense, figuring that is what you spread here.

The thing is sometimes the police etc do abuse David Menzies' rights, but Menzies also knows EXACTLY what he's doing and purposefully goads police etc into a confrontation to acquire an "unjust" reaction from them and catch it on video.  Rebel then uses the footage to convince their readers to donate money for some legal defense or whatnot.  It's some tabloid scheme nonsense.

Rebel does have some usefulness since they report things that the MSM never would, but they're a hot mess.

The state of journalism in this country has really hit the sh*ts since the fall of physical newspapers.
