“They have a left-wing bias,” screamed a man with a right-wing bias.

Beware of right-wingers looking to shut down journalists, for they wish to stop you from knowing the truth.

I mean, the CBC is very visibly inclusive... I guess inclusive = left-leaning? 🤷

Substance free trash.

>“The most pressing issue for on-the-ground work at CBC where all of the editorial decisions are actually made is groupthink. And to that end, I do think there’s some merit to the criticism that CBC has a left-leaning bias, I think this dynamic, in my opinion, is both top-down from leadership and bottom-up from a workforce,” said Henley.

So where's the evidence of this group think? It's one thing to say it exists, it's another to show that it does.

>Henley argued that a public broadcaster is an important institution but that the CBC hasn’t lived up to its role and, consequently, the public has lost trust in it.

CBC regularly ranks as the most trusted media source in the country.

>Menzies said executives at the CBC have to face up to the criticism, rather than assume it’s all conducted in bad faith.

>“You have to deal with that. You can’t just pretend it doesn’t exist,” said Menzies. “But they seem so convinced of their own righteousness right now that I don’t see any evidence that it’s going to happen.”

Perhaps if one doesn't want people to think one's criticisms are in bad faith, one should provide supporting evidence for accusations.

I'm not even a CBC stan. I'm a socialist and CBC is way, way too friendly to landlords for my liking. But this article is 100% garbage.

Since both the left-fringe and the right-fringe have both gained prominence in recent years, government-run media is sometimes painted as left-biased by conservatives and corporate-run media is sometimes exaggerated in its right-wing bias by progressives.

Anyone who views the cbc as "overly politicized" does not watch it. Its news programs are internationally recognized as being very balanced and honestly very bland. (Which is a good thing)

I think non-corporate owned news media is the bigger threat to conservatives here.

I'm lefty and I acknowledge it's a center left liberal media. All medias have editorial lines and bias. All of them. Things are, just reporting facts is boring and you couldn't not attract much audience just by doing a fact reporting in bullet points. Also, Numbers don't lie, but they can tell whatever you want.
