Show Notes
Instead of providing coverage on China’s interference in Canada’s elections, the CBC decides to flood its homepage with SIX stories about the federal government’s TikTok ban before even mentioning interference.
Next, the CBC and Canadian Press mistake a former Rebel News journalist for an illegal immigrant at Roxham road. While shooting a documentary about the crisis, filmmaker Mocha Bezirgan steps into a photograph and is quickly labelled as a migrant looking for transportation.
Lastly, as Dilbert creator Scott Adams is continually cancelled over his recent comments, The Globe and Mail decides to join in and stops publishing his comic in their newspapers.
