Sun News barred from Native anti-fracking protest

[petros]

In other words you have no clue of who or what is funded or how they are funded.

Sorry Captain but you're inferring a direct comparison out of my observation where none exists. I've developed a perspective out of continual observation of how the Sun behaves when stating their complaints. I haven't even stated whether or not I think their base complaint has merit or not, simply that the way in which they choose to draw attention to whatever their issue may be comes off as rather whiny.

'Left/Right' or 'Extreme/Not Extreme' are entirely relative measures.

Guess that we'll have to agree to disagree

Which instrument do you play on the bandwagon.

I'm in the percussion section.. It's reserved for taxpayers that are sick and tired of this sh*t and can wail-away on something to vent their frustrations

No network is 100% funded by taxpayers.

But only one Canadian network gets in excess of a billion dollars annually to operate... On that note, makes that company even more pathetic in that they do get some ad revenues, still need a billion and still can't compete

Kiss the Telefilm Canada funding, Provincial production funding/credits and network tax credits good bye and there would be no Canadian TV/News/Sports at all.

SUNk is $16,000,00 in the hole and crying for tax breaks. Why would they need tax credits and production funding anyway?

Oh dear, does this mean that I should b e recording all of the exciting episodes of Murdoch Mysteries?

 

[petros]

Knock yourself out. Do we still pay a tax on blank DVDs and CDs that goes to fund music/film/TV?

 

[captain morgan]

Who records on DVDs or CDs anymore?

 

[petros]

You pay a levy on your DVR or MP3/MP4 player/recorder and cell gadget too.

The Cons are even cranking up that tax.

Happy Halloween!

You go to ridiculous extremes, just like the CBC you defend.

 

[petros]

Extremes? Like the extremes SUNk goes to which this thread is based on?

I'm not defending the CBC I'm bashing the funding and credits all networks get.

 

[Locutus]

Funding schmunding.

All the press over here or none at all.

End of story.

He wasn't in the Free Speech Zone?

Apparently he (they) weren't.

We need more zones like that because we aren't free enough.

They all pretty much work the same 'cept the sun is on the right side of things for the most part.

Ummm, no, not always.

 

[Zipperfish]

Even the left leaning media in the U.S. showed more solidarity than global in this instance.
Just sayin'

Multiple media outlets just say no to Eric Holder meeting

FOX News is left-leaning? Where are you on the political spectrum? Right of Atilla the Hun?

The only time I watch a cable news channel is to watch Car Chasers. Good show.
