Switching topics a bit, there is a recently published book by a former CBC producer, David Cayley, titled The CBC: How Canada's Public Broadcaster Lost Its Voice (And How to Get It Back).
It examines recent coverage by CBC News, and Mr. Cayley points out two major recent events in which the CBC identified the “correct” political line and embraced it without hesitation or exception. He said that CBC badly failed in its coverage of COVID and the truckers' convoy; he alleges that CBC treated truckers as enemies of the state.
We've also heard in this committee discussions about how the CBC has covered the war in Gaza, and that it has a distinct anti-Israel bias.
What do you say to Canadians who say the CBC is biased in its coverage?
