OMG trying to read that list made me want to puke, its called POLITICS, what do you expect???????? I can't believe how childish these people are. How is this even considered a newspaper, and how can people believe this shit and actually support them??????? Sorry but the truth is that the newspaper appeals to fat, white, racist hicks with a very low education. The fact is that the Sun is at a 6th graders reading level, Star is at 12th grader, and globe is @ 2nd year uni level in case anyone cares. |
Lets talk about newpaper bias for a moment shall we?

How the Globe duped Toronto
Terence Corcoran, National Post
Published: Saturday, January 21, 2006
Why is Toronto so red? If Canada were the old Soviet Union, Toronto would be walling in nostalgia for the glory days of Communist rule. People aren’t Communists here, of course, or at least not too many of them are, but this is a city that thinks the best way to get rid of bad Liberals—on those rare occasions when one is spotted by the locals—is to move deeper to the left for more of the same by electing New Democrats. Why?
There are many reasons, but one of the big factors is the Toronto media. Led by The Globe and Mail and the Toronto Star, the Pravda and Isvestia of Canadian journalism, the entrenched media in Toronto are giant fronts for the old and decrepit Liberal/NDP establishment, wellsprings of agitprop for more and bigger government. On this election alone you could write a book about Toronto journalism and the relentless anti-Conservative twist embedded in most stories and opinion.
But let’s just take the latest news, the front pages of the Globe and the Star yesterday. Headlines in the Star: “The Fight over Ontario: Sex, rights and religion. City fears projects at risk. Tory win could threaten funding deals. Housing, TTC, daycare among concerns. Is religious right poised to set Harper’s agenda? Some fear freedoms to be stripped.” All that on one front page.
Routine stuff for the Star, which recently headlined the idea that the victims of gun violence on the streets of Toronto were “Mike Harris’s Children” and therefore the product of Conservative government. But yesterday the Star was no match for the team that put together the front page of the Globe. “Harper’s lead takes a hit,” said the main headline, followed by a subhead: “With Tory Leader straying from script, poll shows support for his party is waning.”

He then goes on to explain how he thinks the Globe and Mail manipulated voters by providing analysis of polling data wrongly, knowingly. It should be noted that the polling data in question is the same polling data used by the CTV. The two outfits are owned by the same Bell Globemedia, and they contracted with Allan Gregg’s Strategic Council for all their polling this election.
Wow, what a great newpaper! and it's in University format!
