Up From The Memory Hole

The (checks notes) “independent” media.

The Woodbridge Company- Woodbridge is the principal and controlling shareholder (67.8%) of Thomson Reuters, a multinational media conglomerate.[3] Thomson Reuters was formed in 2008, when the Thomson Corporation acquired Reuters.[4]

In late 2010, Woodbridge sold its 40% interest in CTVglobemedia (a Canadian media company with ownership of the CTV Television Network) to BCE Inc. Woodbridge held an 85% interest in The Globe and Mail newspaper before acquiring the remaining 15% owned by BCE in August 2015.[5]

    We are being LOOTED by every nefarious entity on the planet

  3. Over at the National Post, there are always the usual suspects blathering on about how the Post is owned by an American hedge fund.

  4. All this money and they are completely unoriginal in their messaging, parotting the same talking points to the letter on both sides of the border. “Emolument” “Not exonerated” “”Russian collusion” “Hush money” etc etc. I always wonder how the polling outfits are affected. Some say they are not there to measure public opinion, but to manipulate it.

    1. As the old saying goes, the reason they call ’em polls is that they serve the same purpose as the poles that shepherds use to herd sheep.
