We know what they are. We’re just want to see the price list;
Parliamentary Press Gallery president Guillaume St-Pierre is threatening to “terminate” Blacklock’s ten-year membership on complaints of disrespectful treatment of subsidized competitors. St-Pierre of the Journal de Montréal yesterday would not release a mediator’s report in the case.
“The Gallery will consider taking appropriate measures,” St-Pierre wrote in a formal letter of reprimand. Blacklock’s contravened “the quiet and civil environment that members expect,” he wrote.
“The executive may determine it is appropriate to remove privileges from a member at any time for due cause,” wrote St-Pierre. “Membership in the Gallery could also be suspended or terminated.”
The Gallery has no bylaws on quietness or civility. Its constitution also restricts the Gallery from directing how members cover news or adjudicating grievances between competitors.
Threats of expulsion follow a 2021 motion in which Blacklock’s sought full disclosure of subsidies paid to members including the Journal de Montréal. Records show the Gallery executive from last May 2 began compiling vexatious grievances including a complaint Blacklock’s managing editor Tom Korski listened to English-only audio feeds from the House of Commons.
The Parliamentary Press Gallery refuses to allow the alternative media companies, such as Rebel News and True North, to become members because they do not follow the Dear Leader’s official narratives on issues. Not surprisingly, the membership is dominated by CBC and Radio Canada employees.
L – The National Press Gallery complaints add up to : Korski is actually doing his job, and
more than that, over performing. Which, if it was a racetrack would be lapping the other
Media, like they were standing still. Actually, many of them are. If not sleeping on the job.
The MSM accepting pay or is it payoffs(?) have become N.P.C., non playable characters.
Korski and BlackLock’s Reporter are good enough, that Elon Musk’s (Twitter) might decide to link up/to them. Giving one of those new special check marks for posters of influence. 🙂
Don’t tell anyone, but the Trudeau Regime is past it’s best before date, starting to *smell…
*(If we ever see a photo of Biden sniffing Freeland’s hair, that would be proof.)
Kind of like how the Society of Professional Journalists tossed Project Veritas out of their convention, first saying they didn’t pay, then saying they had complaints, then finally saying they broke their code of ethics.
As if journalists have ethics.
But they are all 30 pieces of silver richer.
Well said.
An up vote button would be nice
Sadly I do not think many of them would understand the reference, and if they did they are probably proud of it.
I hadn’t paid for a subscription for Blacklock yet.
Heading over to do that now.
If the Parliamentary Press Gallery were eliminated, and it probably should be…
So what is the purpose of the media licensing board?
Is io ensure that journalism professional standards are met?
If so, how many liars in the government funded media have been called before the board to explain their unprofessional and fraudulent behaviour?
Rhetorical question isn’t it?
They are the hall monitors.
Got to keep everyone on message.
“What do you mean they have a problem with CanCon?”
Is it actually true that Canada pays – subsidizes – some of the working press covering it, and those working press have managed to keep the amounts and existence of those payments secret?
OMG, Canada is done. That is so corrupt.
Guilty of listening to the English feed….never listening to the fwench feed.
That’s treasonous! Yur outa here Korski
This:
“Threats of censure follow an April 7, 2021 Gallery meeting in which Blacklock’s sponsored a motion asking “that all Gallery members disclose all applications for grants, rebates or subsidies to any branch of the Government of Canada and that disclosures be published on a Press Gallery website.” The motion was defeated by a vote of 18 to 1.”
All on the take.
“ disrespectful treatment of subsidized competitors.”
Aka – sit down, shut up and put up
Vaguely sounds like the establishment argument against a triple E senate, surely no connection.
