@ OMMAG: "Coud there be a BETTER time to throw CBC to the wolves???"

Answer: YES! When the economic situation improves then we sell it. I have no love for CBC, but there's nothing that would make me happier to see her go down (pun intended) and make a profit on it at the same time! ;)

"and make a profit on it at the same time! ;)"

I care not for a profit give one share to every Canadian who didn't pay taxes in the last 5 years as revenge.

Government funding or 'bailout'?

Variety won't open for me, even the home page, so let me take a guess with "Sticks nix journo dicks" as the article headline.

To quote someone really famous. Stupid is as stupid does.

It all comes back to bite them.
Perhaps the 'viewers' are tired of hearing the doom and gloom about the economy ad nauseum, for ever and ever amen.

Make a profit on it? Who the hell would buy it?
