CBC whistleblower quit over COVID propaganda
“Klowak gives an example of a story that didn’t get published because CBC wanted to spin it as pro-vaccine.
She says a group of parents contacted her with vaccine concerns. For example, they thought it was unethical to encourage children to get the vaccine behind their parents’ backs. Moreover, they had vaccine liability questions.
The group referenced expert virologist Byram Bridle from the University of Guelph to show that their concerns were based on science, not mere speculation.
Shocked by the division the vaccine was causing in families and communities, Klowak pitched the story and was given the go-ahead by her editors.
She proceeded to seek out both sides of the scientific debate regarding COVID vaccines.
In the course of her research, Klowak came across the Canadian COVID Care Alliance — a group of medical experts who presented an alternative vaccine perspective supported by scientific insights and data. The group had a petition calling to suspend vaccines in youth until long-term safety trials were completed.
Thinking this was a hard-hitting story that would “punch a hole in the narrative,” her copy-editor instructed her to submit a draft to the Toronto Health Unit for feedback.
While none of the data in her draft was questioned by the authorities at the Toronto Health Unit, they attacked the reputation of the COVID Care Alliance.
Klowak was subsequently asked by CBC higher-ups to take the COVID Care Alliance out of the story and to include two voices from Toronto Health Unit who supported vaccinating young people instead.
“So at that point, I went back to management. I said you know what, ‘I can’t do this. What you’re asking me to do is journalistically unethical. It’s manipulating information. This doesn’t sit well with me,’” Klowak said.
“It was dishonest. It was a dishonest thing for me to do. It was immoral for me as well. Because not only were we cancelling credible voices, we were violating our own principles of balance and fairness.“
“I couldn’t do what they were asking me to do by censoring an entire group of credible professionals just because they had a different viewpoint on this.”
“I’m thinking, this is not right. And it was moving the story towards the narrative, and not allowing dissenting voices to be heard.”
Klowak further noted that the CBC moved from merely disregarding one side to outright smearing them with labels such as “anti-vaxxer.”
In 2021, she notes, the federal government conducted a survey to find the proportion of vaccine-hesitant Canadians, finding that 50% of the Canadian population was hesitant at the time because the vaccine was experimental and unproven.
But instead of focusing on that group of 50%, CBC framed the vaccine-hesitant as borderline religious nuts who denied COVID as even being real. ”
Attended a customer appreciation dinner sponsored by one of the grain companies today. One of their grain traders was there and he was very clear in stating not to believe the media. There would be no room for someone of his competence or candor in the civil service.
Anyone who supports any “covid” measures should be locked up.
The media people are having people in their inner circles getting sick and dying too. Themselves included. They’re simply not dropping fast enough yet.
One of the blessings of the jab is the fact that almost all of our news media and their loved ones have already offed themselves. The vast majority of our enemies have.
Don’t worry.
They will start keeling over in droves soon enough.
Long Coffins.
Keep on believing that. Try believing it into being. Go ahead. Eventually they will die of natural causes and you’ll claim vindication-or you would if you didn’t die first, which you will.
Last night I watched a mediocre WW II movie, Mosquito Squadron, starring David McCallum:
Unfortunately, this film packs in just about every war movie cliche you can name. The only good thing about it is that it has a lot of camera shots of the De Havilland Mosquito. Mind you, a lot of them seem to have been filched from the earlier 633 Squadron (with Cliff Robertson), which also features Mosquitos.
Oh, there’s also a big bad tank making lots of bang-bang and ka-boom in the latter half.
This was made around the time that his TV series The Man from U. N. C. L. E. went off the air and McCallum was trying to shake his Illya Kuryakin image.
I also watched another WW II last night and I was disappointed with this one. Too Late the Hero:
stars Cliff Robertson and Michael Caine, with Denholm Elliot and Henry Fonda, the latter making a brief appearance at the beginning. Its director is Robert Aldrich who also made The Dirty Dozen and The Flight of the Phoenix.
And there’s where the movie goes wrong. Aldrich made a number of films about people being stuck in dire situations, such as those I mentioned, but TLTH can’t seem to decide if it wants to be TDD set in the Pacific theatre or a partial remake of The Bridge on the River Kwai, with Robertson playing the counterpart of William Holden’s character. In other words, this movie doesn’t offer anything original unlike Aldrich’s earlier films.
Part of it could be due to when it was made, the year 1970. A lot of war films produced at that time were thinly-disguised critiques of what was happening in Viet Nam and this one doesn’t appear to be any different.
I first saw this on commercial TV in the late 1970s and I wasn’t impressed by it. My opinion hasn’t changed.
ANYTHING original unlike Aldrich’s.
Flight of the PHOENIX with Jimmy Stewart is watchable.
First one killed Aldrich’s son Co Stars and gets crushed in the back of the plane while reading a Playboy magazine, and sucking on a bottle of Jack Daniel’s.
The REMAKE is OK .
I didn’t like the remake. The only good part about that movie was the opening credits when the plane landed at the airstrip next to the drilling rig.
Aldrich’s son was in at least another of his movies, What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?. He plays one of the two workers at the beach refreshment stand in the closing part of the movie.
With respect to that movie, Bette Davis and Joan Crawford play a pair of aging sisters, with the former tormenting the latter. The story I heard was that the two woment weren’t acting–they really didn’t like each other. Apparently that was the reason why Crawford wasn’t in the follow-up to that Hush… Hush, Sweet Charlotte, where Olivia de Havilland plays the foil to Davis’s character. (Watch for Bruce Dern in the first part of that one.)
I have recently been watching some old Vincent Price horror movies.
The most recent was “Twice Told Tales” from 1963.
They bring back memories of my childhood, when we only had 13 channels, but they actually had good content from time to time.
I thought Mosquito Squadron was dreadful, I couldn’t watch the whole thing. 633 Squadron was better, however there was a glaring error that was repeated several times: during high-speed bombing runs we got a close-up cockpit shot, in that shot only two instruments were visible – the tachometers, which were pegged at zero rpm!!
These days movie directors are much better at getting these things right. I have worked on several movies, including K-19, the Widowmaker, with Harrison Ford. I was especially amused during the filming of a scene where the submarine was diving extra deep. There was a technician watching a screen and carefully adjusting all the dials on the set to make it look real (which it did). Even more amusing was the tense scene when water started leaking into the sub. I was outside the set, watching a guy with a white plastic jug carefully pouring a few drops of water into a funnel!
Getting back to 633 Squadron, they actually wrecked a few Mosquitos by taxiing then quite fast and retracting the gear. It was obvious when watching the movie.
I figure one could watch Mosquito Squadron as the basis for a drinking game. Have a drink when an old cliche is trotted out and, within a few minutes, one will be in a happy haze. By the time the movie’s over, one could be completely blotto.
One glaring error in that movie was that the rocket development facility was located at a French chateau when the Germans actually used the island of Peenemünde for that. Being located off-shore, few people not working there would have known what was going on, plus the sea could be used as a safe test range.
After quoting George Soros, Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelos, Justin Trudeau and Joe Biden, Tom Lehrer isn’t much of a stretch.
Tom does not deserve to be associated with such A-Holes
You are absolutely correct.
My apologies, I had him confused with Jim Lehrer.
I am of the opinion that the media talking heads and stuffed shirts should swing right beside the politicians.

Don Braid is a bit of a weenie, but he’s right about this. Danielle Smith needs to stop associating with people like Rob Anderson and much worse Fluery: “He says the Rogers failure last week was “planned.” UCP candidate Travis Toews, who opposed Smith’s plan to nullify federal law, “is the newest appointee by the World Economic Forum.””
In a just world this guy would get infected by COVID and die of it. You’re not allowed to believe in these things or even entertain them if you want to be a serious factor in the 21st century. This offends the sensibilities of educated cosmopolitans born after 1980 (such as myself), and we are the world and the future, end of story. Offend us and pay dearly.
Looks like Project Veritas is about to pay for some of its BS and lies.
So I wonder what happened to Ivana Trump. Presumably she fell and injured herself. I am hearing about a lot of people falling unexpectedly. What’s behind it? In her case, could someone have intended to send a warning to The Donald?
There’s only one small little problem with this “New Urbanism” “Towns” video … he says “streets” and buildings are placed at human-scale to facilitate window shopping and facilitate a vibrant street life … WRONG!!! Try to keep up with the times, eh University “Urbanist”? Retail is dead! Offices are half DEAD … your beautiful, human-scaled vibrant streets are DEAD!! Everyone is sitting in their apartments tapping an iPad … and getting Uber Eats, or Door Dash delivery. The only thing living on your “vibrant” streets are homeless people, drug dealers, hooker, and criminals.
Sorry … but TRUTH is HARD! It’s a real bitch. Stop romanticizing “streets” as though they are all like Bruges or Disneylands Main Street. They’re NOT like that anymore.
