Oh, check this out!! Just TOO delicious!!!

Trudeau To Boycott Sun News After Ezra Levant's Wedding Photo Rant

Now, I sympathize with Justin. Ezra is often over the top, as he was in this instance. I could never be a politician, because after this, were I Justin, I would confront Ezra and punch his lights out.........simple as that.

BUT, listen to THIS!!! (from the article cited above)



LOL

Here is Trudeau, demonstrating his typical " level of openness, of accessibility to media, both here and across the country" with Sun News

Oh, Shiny Pony! - Small Dead Animals

But now Pretty Boy would like to blame his inability to answer tough questions on Ezra Levant.....

It is to laugh.

Sun News is to Canada whatb RT is to Russia--just a mouthpiece for the ruling party. Trudeau's right to boycott, though wrong to announce it. He would have been better off to to justr turf their media with no commet as to why. This will just feed the right's incessant victim complex.

Yes, Justin has every right not to speak to anyone he chooses not to speak with....

Now, does Harper have that same right?

Oh, and I am NOT saying Justin has to speak with Sun, I am merely pointying out the hypocrisy of the man claiming to be open with the media, while he refuses to answer questions from anyone that does not fawn over him.

Don't believe me?? Watch the Pretty Boy asume that the reporter asking him a REAL question is SUN:

Now, what have you learned here today?? :)

As for Sun News TV, I admit I have become a bit of a fan.

You should actually watch it sometime. Much more discussion from all sides than you will ever see on CBC.

That is a bit disingenuous.. Levant called his parents ****s and equated an innocent peck on the cheek to rape. That is just nasty. Maybe you are so wrapped up in your fear and lopathing that you see that somehow as legitimate political commentary. Fortuantely there are not many like, as evidenced by ratings at the Sun. Of the few viewers they do have, I imagine a good chunk of them are watchin them for the comedy value alone.

Did you actually read my posts??

From number 518, just below, I said:

"I sympathize with Justin. Ezra is often over the top, as he was in this instance. I could never be a politician, because after this, were I Justin, I would confront Ezra and punch his lights out.........simple as that."

Obviously, I DO NOT think what Levant did was "legitimate political commentary".

Someone get this guy a towel.

That's putting it mildly. Maybe you should stop being such a fanboy of Ezra Levant.

Obviously, from the quote I left you above, I am not interested in that style of political mud-slinging. A little substance is nice.

And substance is what you usually find on Sun News......much more so than CBC or CTV.

The ratings problem is that people enjoy being fed intellectual pablum. They don't get it at Sun.

Is Sun biased?? Oh ABSOLUTELY!!!

Is CBC biased?? Oh ABSOLUTELY!!!

Which is why I watch both. What you do not get from one, you get from the other.

The difference I can watch CBC for half an hour and get 10 minutes on the latest sports star fiasco, 10 minutes of BS on some social event nobody with a three digit IQ gives a crap about, and 10 minutes being told what to think about the actual political and world news.

On Sun, when I watch for half an hour, I get 15 minutes of being told what to think about a subject, and 15 minutes of serious debate.........both on actual news.

That's putting it mildly. Maybe you should stop being such a fanboy of Ezra Levant.

As I said:

Levant can be infuriating.

This case was over the top, and he should apologize. And you should pay attention to what I write, instead of challenging me over things I did not write.

And you should stop listening to him.

Naw....he does some good stuff. His on the spot interviews with protesters are pure gold.

His fight with the Alberta HRT was a classic....he was the ONLY publisher in Canada with the cojones to print the Mohammed cartoons, which should have been on the front page of every newspaper in the western world. Then he totally trashed the entire illegitimate Canadian system of forcing correct political thought through extra-judicial tribunal.

For that, he gets my respect.

But like most true rebels (yep, that is what I said :)) he is often wayyyy over the top.

As his friend Rick Mercer said, he is a provocateur.

Oh I heard you. I just don't believe you. because what Levant said is exactly the type of thing you've been saying here all along. And that's why Sun News exists. For the crowd who want a convenient repository for all their fear and loathing.

In a nutshell...



Comparing Sun News and CBC Newsworld is ludicrous. If you compare the amount of time reporting news, versus "editorialists" there's no comparison. If you compare the number of news correspondents, the number of foreign correspondents, and, most importantly, ratings, there's no comparison.

Sun is to Canadian news what RT is to Russian news.

Liar.

FIND a single place where I made an attack on someone's family...or STFU. Just one. Apologies will be graciously accepted, but are expected.

Sun News is not stealing money out of my pocket to pay to send correspondents off on lovely adventures to exotic locales.

BTW, if you actually KNEW anything about George Orwell, you would know that he worked for the BBC........and fashioned 1984's Ministry of Truth after that institution.........the very institution that inspired the CBC. You have things exactly 180 degrees wrong.

The CBC is the equivalent of Russia's RT, and falls only slightly short of Iran's Press TV. You know, the GOVERNMENT broadcaster.

Geezus.

Really, you aren't this stupid. Give your head a shake.

I meant that your attacks, like Levant's, are completely over-the-top and highly personal. Which isn't very rational.

Neither is CBC Newsworld. And, unlike Sun cable, it makes a profit.

Geezus.

If you seriously think the level of bias on CBC is on par with Sun News, then you need your head examined, sorry. Nothing CBC Newsworld does is anywhere close to the outrageousness of Levant. CBC Newsworld's idea of provocative is Rex Murphy or that dude from Dragon's Den.

But for calling Justin Trudeau mother's a **** and getting very concerned about the state of her underpants, he still has your respect.

Because despite you declaring up and down that *you* would never say that and Levant went too far, you actually like it. Ezra Levant tells you what you want to hear. You can pretend your not an angry crazy ******* and yet be one vicariously through him. The reason you brought up the story was not to denounce Levant, but to laugh at Trudeau for taking offense. Why shouldn't Trudeau take offence? Why shouldn't you agree with Trudeau when you go on about how Levant went too far and how we shouldn't go after a politician's family? It seems to me that your stated beliefs didn't match your behavior when you just laughed at Trudeau and relished in his taking offence. It's because you like what Levant said. You're just not willing to say it.

I'll tell you what, stay outta my head. It is not a nice neighbourhood.........and I sure as hell don't require YOU to tell ME what I think.

Geezus, the arrogance.

READ what I said.

"IF I WERE TRUDEAU....I WOULD PUNCH (Ezra"s) LIGHTS OUT."

I DO Agree with Trudeau that Levant was incredibly offensive.

What I did was point out that Trudeau was LYING when he used Ezra's offensive rant as an excuse to boycott Sun News.....he already WAS boycotting Sun News because they actually dare to ask him grown-up questions.

Levant made a serious mistake in supplying Pretty Boy an excuse to "boycott".

I'm guessing Trudeau knew Ezra Levant was a clown and Sun News was a clown news organization before they editorialized about his mother's panties. You still haven't realized it either before or after this incident and still pretend Sun News is for grown-ups.

Three things about maturity I can tell from this exchange:

Colpy - wants to punch out people who insult his mother, respects a man who made a personal attack on someone's mother
Sun News - calls people's mothers ****s and ruminates on their underwear
Trudeau - ignores the trolls

You tell me who I should be impressed with here. You? Ezra Levant? Trudeau? Who is the grown up? The way you people go on about his hair and looks, his being a drama teacher, calling him stupid names like "Shiny Pony", it's reminiscent of a high school playground. You think your clown media is the grown up side?
