as i have stated, it felt overly dramatic and kind of "gotcha!"-ish. i didnt have a problem with the information presented, more that i felt the delivery was 'sexed up'. |

I probably have, but I'll watch them again, because I'm not sure. Those 3 are more likely historical documentary format, while the CBC one is an investigative journalism format. I think it's just a difference in format. |

Yes, being subservient to commercial interests is 1000 times better...:rolleyes:...public broadcasting networks pwn corporate media in their independence from advertising interests. |
That's like saying cookies are better with dough...
What are you saying anyways? :conf: |

If it wasn't for Hockey Night in Canada they'd already be dead and now that they've lost that, I have no idea what's holding that place together other than spit and paper that consists of my tax dollars... |
what the hell are you talking about? CBC has some of the best reporters in the business (Peter Mansbridge, Henry Champ) and I'm fairly certain is the most watched channel for national news. Lloyd Roberton is good too, but I'd take the CBC over CTV any day and I'm certainly not alone on that.
The CBC isn't going anywhere. |

Wrong, it's well known the plans for the attack had been in the works since 1996. |
wtf does that have to do with what i said?
all i'm saying is Bin Laden can't even be legally indicted on the charge of perpetrating the 9/11 attacks. he's just a material witness wanted for questioning. |

Cookies are better with dough? What a horrible analogy which makes no sense...
What I am saying is obvious, why you don't get it, I find strange...
Corporate media = loyal to advertising interests
Public media = loyal to public interests
It's that simple...:o |

So why are we fighting a war against the Taliban in Afghanistan? Why did we bomb them back to opium heaven? Nothing makes sense anymore. |

You actually think the CBC is subject to public interests?
I don't remember being asking a single thing from CBC.
IT'S A GOVERNMENT RUN ENTITY...What's so hard to understand here? |
