Daddy, make them stop.
The largest union representing journalists in Canada has put out a report on so-called harassment faced by journalists calling for stricter penalties for those who engage in verbal or physical attacks on members of the media.
On Thursday, Unifor released Breaking the News: Media Workers Under Attack, among other things the report calls for a crackdown on social media platforms, harsher penalties for attacking journalists and lays the blame for failing trust in media squarely on right-wing politicians.
The report comes on the heels of campaigns by legacy media organizations like the Canadian Association of Journalists calling on governments to counteract the harassment of media workers.
I hear there are openings in coal.
Will they use coal istead of solar for the ovens? I;m sure the Mad Groundhog has ideas on the topic.
Learn to toad.
Speaking of Unifor, has Gerry Dias been charge yet?
Pretty audacious. Not only can you not criticize the regime, you can’t event criticize the regime’s cadre of propagandists, apologists, and catamites.
I guess it’s only we wretched proles who are allowed to be attacked for what we think and say.
I think I will not comply. The government is full of liars and media as well. They can all ……. fill in the blanks.
FOAD?
The media have gone from corrupted via being liberal mouth pieces to deluded. They have no one to blame but themselves for the hatred and contempt espoused against them.
They think that they are free to lie to and about us, and expect us to thank them for it.
And they’ll never see it because cult members never recognize that they’re in a cult.
So this will only apply to the chosen media that tows the one party line? Certainly not to the likes Menzies or Ezra of the Rebel or True North, etc.?
They use the term “Ultra Right Wing” as loosely as “Assault Rifle” these days..
I said on here a couple years ago, that Trudeau’s Plan is to GAG you with your own dirty socks.
I told you so.
I Blame The Gutless Globalist Harper. He had a total majority in the HOC and the Senate. He could have killed the CBC and all funding for the MS and Canadian BS Culture Funding.
What did he do NOTHING.
He stood there and P*SSED HIMSELF.
There are no Conservatives in Canada.
I’ve watched(and was heavily involved in politics) for several decades as the Libranos and their Media (it’s NEVER done anything but tonguebathe Libranos) and every other Institution in the country became one big anti-people, pro-Globalist, pro-Totalitarian, pro-Fascist Liberal New World Order.
Nobody was looking out for you.
I truly hope that the Conservative Party is really just the co-opted Washington Generals, as it’s hard to believe that Conservatives could be such stupid, cowardly, weak, feckless, gormless, testicle-less, loser punching bags.
One thing you can say about Canadian Cons, they make the French look like the bravest, smartest warriors in history.
“One thing you can say about Canadian Cons, they make the French look like the bravest, smartest warriors in history.”
Ouch. 🙂
(so true)
Resentful children after being shouted at for repeatedly lying.
I plan on using that!
“The report also bemoaned right-wing populist politicians who circumvented the traditional press by speaking solely to supporters on social media.”
Imagine the nerve of people who bypass the main stream media.
And they should wake up and realize it isn’t really circumventing – it’s more like forgetting about it, and just choosing the most beneficial method for conservative messages.
They’re upset that those they badmouth at every opportunity choose to ignore them? Petulant children, my Gran had a wooden spoon just for those occasions.
The media bots are liars and we all know it now. So they are being treated as professional liars should be treated … With ridicule and contempt.
Indeed they are professional liars, but they are professional liars bought-and-paid-for by the chinese-librano government. Lets not pretend they have any honour by referring to them as media they are PRESSTITUTES, they whore out their column inches to an illegitimate government disposed to crushing any dissent.
Wait. Does this mean journalists will be protected from criticism, that the law will level penalties on people who dare question the accuracy, motive or honesty of any one particular journalist?
Tweedledum and Tweedledumber. The law means exactly what we mean it to say in the moment when we invoke the law.
Red Queen. Off with their heads!
Can’t stand the heat stay out of the kitchen cooking poisonous crappy food.
A journalist complaining about too much free speech is like a fish complaining about the dampness.
The Union of Propagandists ,insists they they and only they, have the Guild Right to spread Lies and Hysteria”.
Any non union (Non guild) persons are scabs, defiling the hard won Union prerogatives to lie cheat and steal at will.
Of course it is too late to state the obvious..they coulda just joined the Liberal Party and saved all them union dues.
When do we get the “I Jerry the Thief, approve this message”.
Funny how destructive vested interests are.
Public Service Twits,in fact everyone on the tax tit,are in conflict of interest.
They should not be allowed to vote.
Nor Carry Weapons.
Nor Unionize.
Don’t like those conditions?
Get a productive Job.
The insanity of telling us,dumb taxpayers,how valuable and expert our bureaucrats be after the last 6 decades,is beyond parody.
So,if they be so smart,educated and creative,why for they not producing,instead of grifting?
A “successful business” in far too much of Canada today,is an empty shell dependent on Government Grants,handouts and kickbacks..
And many of these “Successful Liberals”are in reality dependents of the government.
Part of the Parasitic Overload,while bragging about their “Business Skills”.
Attacks on Rebel and the Blaze reporters are explicitly approved in the recommendations.
Those responsible for their own declining reputations and trust are the quickest to blame others.
The media are no longer journalists, and no longer pretend to be. They want to be propagandists for authority, but be respected. Sorry, but those two things are mutually exclusive.
CTV Fact Check!!!
Liberal-owned Media huckster Macgregor advises you misinformers that the Liberal Apparatchik Commissioner is NOT related to The Twit Tyrant.
CTV Headline: Fact check: Emergencies Act inquiry commissioner not related to Justin Trudeau
Paragraph 4: Rouleau does have a history of connections to the Liberal party, including a family tie to former prime minister Jean Chretien, but the POEC commissioner is not related to the Trudeau family.
What a relief! Not related to the charged, just some Cretin fellow.
Family Liberals being SOLE judge and jury and pronouncing Not Guilty on issues of such national importance?
How did this happen?
Where were the Conservatives?
The Media? (I know. I’m joking)
Is there not anyone in this country who ISN’T owned by the Liberals? Anyone?
Canada=Joke Country=Clown People= Serfs.
Yup.
Being denied by CTV confirms it to be true.
The comments are good,poor CTV nobody loves them.
Meh,even if what CTV says is true,he’s a Quebercer and we can accuse them of being a bunch of inbred ingrates and thus all related anyway..
The fact we just went through three years of most relentless propaganda campaign of fear and today they are still lecturing us about our need to accept less for ourselves and personal freedom is some kind of abstract illusion doesn’t phase these mid-wits. Never mind the daily we are all racist bigots and men can get pregnant stuff. They should be on their knees begging for mercy. They are getting off lucky with just mean words.
The media has devalued it own brand by being left wing corporate whores.. After all you get paid to toss the political salad and I don’t get paid to watch it.. That in itself is a hate crime..
I get it.. Rich kids (whos your daddy) go to school to get their journalists degree and the whole room is buzzing like a beehive with some responsibly you have gifted yourself with.. Leftism.. The world through your prism that’s about as interesting as the back of a cereal box..
Do media personalities really need to be movie stars with a fan base?.. Shilling politics on top of that.. You have gone from murders and garbage fires to King and Queen makers.. Paid trolls that make mommy and daddy proud with their activism..
Its kind of always been this way.. Just the scope has changed.. You now annoy the entire nation with what used to play in a city or small region.. This is our failure to love you apparently.. More accurately a cry for more money, more welfare so you can make mommy and daddy proud.. God forbid they make your car payments..
Maybe the news needs a live audience to hoot and holler when all the right talking points come up.. It works for Bill Maher
Someday, these Librano Media Apologists will run into a mirror and realize they have spent their life lying to their fellow citizens in order to make the wealthy and powerful more so.
The fleas of 1000 camels will then infest them forever.
As a kid, I used to like reading the backs of cereal boxes and would gladly go back than read today’s dreck.
The largest organized crime “NGO” is UNIFOR. It is now stating the equivalent of all those posters in government – public interface facilities that declare zero tolerance for abuse of the government employees. IOW, the non-free (Trudeau’s) press are all essentially agents of the state which is the leviathan embodiment of organized crime. The Canadian media are essentially state censors and their union is a criminal organization within the largest criminal organization. Oh dear! Am I offending the tender feelings of the thugs of UNIFOR? They see conservatives as their enemy and in the case of the occasional principled one, they are correct. To a rational man, the state is always the enemy and so are its goons.
Presstitutes just have to presstitute.
This is also part of why the turd wants to control the internet, cuz he gets upset by nasty right wingers calling him mean names. The presstitutes are also upset at us meanies. I bet the turd WILL make a new law to coddle em. They keep talking about misinformation and malinformation, but what they really mean is, anything they disagree with. They think they are the ones that get to decide what is truth and what is not truth. I wonder who gave them that right?
J. West above says they should be treated with “ridicule and contempt”, and I fully agree, however, ridicule and contempt is what they are whining about. It could end up with fines and jail for us peasants, just for being mean to them.
Eventually, we will get to the last stick on the Camel’s back, I just don’t know when it will be, or how much the poor media will suffer in the meantime…sob sniff…. More likely, it’s us that will suffer in the meantime!
If they keep jabbing at us with that stiff finger, one day someone will snap it off!
When you are a lying sack of crap who takes money from another lying sack of crap, you shouldn’t expect respect.
You are scum. Contempt is the least of what you deserve.
Perhaps if they started acting like actual journalists, instead of Trudeau waterboys, people would start to respect for them again and this “harassment” would stop. Also perhaps the CBC president thingy should stop trying to lecture Canadians about their behavior, especially since she lives in the U.S.
“Perhaps if they started acting like actual journalists, instead of Trudeau waterboys, people would start to respect for them again and this “harassment” would stop.”
They could start by identifying those 11 Canadian MPs who were targeted by China during the last election.
“Journalism is dead.”
