The privately-owned National Post newspaper will join with the socialism-reliant, far-left, state-owned, and it could credibly argued, anti-conservative CBC, in covering the Olympics.
Jonathan Harris, the National Post’s Vice President of Digital Media swooned, “It’s about two respected media companies working together…”
Joel Johannesen, an actually respected Canadian thinker who still believes in freedom and free-markets and capitalism, and doesn’t rely on corporate welfare through nefarious ties with state-owned media, and who therefore deserves the utmost respect, reports that it’s about one private enterprise newspaper company supporting state-owned news media behemoth, and therefore supporting the concept of socialism for our country; thereby crossing the line on many levels. “Their word ‘respected’ has utterly no place in the conversation,” Johannesen is quoted as saying.
Actually it started with a blog entry (Newsquip #5) back in October. I saw this coming.
And (pace Globe and Mail) soon, it will literally be “Canada’s national newspaper” — the state newspaper — just as the CBC is already Canada’s state TV and state radio and state satellite radio news and entertainment media.
And here’s a gratuitous picture of Karl Marx.
