By refusing to deliver accurate, comprehensive, and contextually rich reporting on Israel’s assault, Canada’s public broadcaster, the CBC, has denied Canadians the information they need to act on conscience and to pressure their government to help end the savagery. In effect, the CBC has made Canadians complicit in genocide.
Personally, I love the CBC and will fight vigorously to defend it.
But at the same time, no media outlet should ve held above legitimate criticism; and CBC has been particularly bad for ‘both sides-ism’ lately for very clear-cut issues. That’s sloppy and dangerous behaviour, and has to be called out.
I don’t know which contents coming from the CBC you’re consuming but what I see almost every day is very far from “both sides-ism”
I think their coverage evolved a bit over the year and while it’s fair to say that it might have been slow to pick up the right tone, nowadays the coverage is very much on the “another day of ongoing genocide” side of coverage spectrum.
