UN Bans The Rebel From Climate Conference

[tay]

Earlier this month, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) secretariat informed The Rebel, the right wing news and opinion platform published by political commentator Ezra Levant, it was rejecting the outlet’s application to send a producer and a reporter to COP22 on the grounds that “advocacy media outlets do not qualify for accreditation.”

The Rebel had made arrangements for its Alberta bureau chief Sheila Gunn Reid and producer Meaghan MacSween to be in Marrakesh when the conference takes place November 7 to 18. Their applications for media accreditation to UNFCCC were denied and an application for a cameraman is yet to receive a response.

United Nations bars Ezra Levant’s The Rebel from climate conference


Ezra Levant insists he’s not a ‘reporter.’ On this, everyone agrees

Mr. Levant, by his own admission, is not a journalist. “I’m a commentator, I’m a pundit,” he explained to the judge. “I don’t think in my entire life I’ve ever called myself a reporter.”

Gotta keep the narrative in such a way that the truth about it will not be exposed.

Lefties hate facts.

Only the leftstream media need apply

Ezra Levant's viewers are already misinformed about climate change. If he went to the conference they wouldn't learn anything and since he won't be there, they still won't learn anything. Now Levant can stoke his persecution complex and squeeze his audience to cover his legal fees. It's win-win.

...by those who wish to have a state run media

 

[Corduroy]

We already have a state-run media.

 

[Cannuck]

We already have a state-run media.

We have a state run TV network, radio and news channel. That doesn't go far enough for some folks.

 

[bobnoorduyn]

We already have a state-run media.

And that's where we get accurate information about climate change?

 

[Corduroy]

And that's where we get accurate information about climate change?

You might.

We have a state run TV network, radio and news channel. That doesn't go far enough for some folks.

Some want the government to remind them to renew their drivers incenses?

Some want the government to remind them to renew their drivers incenses?

And that has what to do with the UN trying to stifle anybody that disagrees with them? It wasn't too long ago, the left was whining about the media's access to Harper. Its funny to watch people throw their backs out jumping to the other side of the argument.

About as much as....

...by those who wish to have a state run media

which we already have, but....

That doesn't go far enough for some folks.

I guess they want driver's license renewal letters.

 

[Cannuck]

About as much as....

Nope, but thanks for playing

 

[Corduroy]

You're welcome!

 

[Cannuck]

I'm sorry for embarrassing you.

 

[Corduroy]

Oh don't be sorry. I'm not embarrassed.

 

[Cannuck]

Oh don't be sorry. I'm not embarrassed.

Of course not. Nudge nudge wink wink

 

[Corduroy]

Please don't nudge me. And the winking... it's a little weird.
