  5. The filth at the CBC still refuse to cover the Gosnell abortion doctor murder trial.
    I emailed the PM and my MP. as well as James Moore to ask why.
    They do have one story on it, from 2010.

  6. Kinsella: “I don’t, of course, agree with 99 per cent of what is said on the Sun News Network. In fact, I go on there to gleefully rebut it.”
    He rebuts about 1% of it, when they make a mistake.

    Were you the person who once suggested that we have a web site for unpublished CBC.Ca comments?? If so–it`s long overdue!!

  8. Party “heavyweight” Ken Clarke of David Cameron’s Tories labels the UK Independence Party “a collection of clowns” ahead of UK-wide local council elections.
    After the debacle of the Suez Crisis, Britain’s military vowed to never again go “east of the Suez”. In David Cameron’s Britain, well…
    A comparison between the second-longest reigning monarch on Earth and the newest royal on the block (whose ascension? investiture? will be on Tuesday).

  15. Neo-AGW PR Report: leftist Grauniad’s scare-mongering.

    “The last time CO2 levels were so high was probably in the Pliocene epoch, between 3.2m and 5m years ago, when Earth’s climate was much warmer than today.”

    *and grandchildren:
    “The 400ppm threshold is a sobering milestone, and should serve as a wake up call for all of us to support clean energy technology and reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, before it’s too late for our children and grandchildren,” said Tim Lueker, an oceanographer and carbon cycle researcher with Scripps CO2 Group.”

  17. My letter to CBC’s Ombudsman concerning their playing of Justin’s ‘teacher’ ad.
    CBC Ombudsman,
    In 2009 the publicly owned and financed CBC refused to run a political ad because there was not an election going on.
    Strange that the CBC ran Justin Trudeau’s ‘teacher’ ad during the Ottawa/Philadelphia Hockey Night in Canada game on Saturday night.
    I guess it’s just Conservative ads they refuse to run. Has the CBC become an arm of the Liberal Party of Canada?
    I’m sure as Ombudsman you will make sure this abject leftward special treatment will be stopped immediately.
    Her reply,
    CBC’s Office of the Ombudsman deals with complaints about CBC news and current affairs programming. Advertisements are beyond the mandate and jurisdiction of this office. I have forwarded your e-mail to CBC Audience Relations.
    Sincerely,
    Esther Enkin
    CBC Ombudsman

    I know that this is a great place for CBC critics, however Liberals and leftists tend to shy away from here. A bit like the small town I grew up in when the dog catcher from the next village did his rounds. He drove an old Dodge with no muffler, the dogs and cat got to know the truck.
    I would like more of “them there” socialists to see what their favorite network is up to!!

  20. Though a dedicated website for rejected comments would be a great idea.I can’t claim it as mine. I think it was “ron from kelowna’
    I requested from CBC a year or so ago all my comments that they rejected. They claim that they do not keep ‘rejected’ comments. They also would not say if the guidelines used by the ‘moderation’ team are the same as the ones that are stated on their site. The ‘moderation’ duties are outsourced to a company in Winnipeg. I contacted them but did not receive a reply.
    It was a bit of a battle to get anything from the CBC. They did give me the comments that they published and crowed about how they went the extra mile.
    The CBC is a cesspool that needs to be drained. James Moore is not too concerned about their their practices. I was going after them for hiding a ‘Khadr’ poll that went horribly wrong and wrote to Moore. He told me I was going about it the right way and to keep at it. The CBC did find the poll and blamed a software glitch. Moore did nothing.
    FIRE.THEM.ALL,and Moore too.

  22. I have mostly stopped posting at the CBC. It became too unrealiable in terms of actually getting your post up. Mine are never abusive — but I do typically argue with the CBC-type of received wisdom. I think it has gotten worse in terms of what they will post from the right. If you have a particularly strong argument for or against something, that will be deep-sixed. I actually recall one person suggesting that perhaps Conservatives were getting disillusioned with their side because their numbers had decreased so much. So, o.k. let them all just talk to themselves. That will make it somewhat less appealing, I think, since many people go to these sights in search of a good argument. It goes without saying that no one every persuades anyone to change their view.
