Is the CBC boss TRYING to sound like a left-wing extremist?

If you don’t detect the extreme left — pure socialist — tone in statements like his today, then, well, you’ve probably been brought up watching the state-owned, socialism-reliant CBC, and went to public schools. 

socialist state mediaBy the way I love how SOME media is slowly adopting my correct language for describing the state-owned CBC.  “State broadcaster” works just fine, exactly as it does to describe Iran’s state broadcaster.

OTTAWA – The president of the state broadcaster says the CBC has plans to expand its reach into new media platforms, and compete with private broadcasters for professional sports broadcast rights.

Hubert Lacroix promised to keep CBC at the “centre of a revolution.”

“Around the world, the public broadcaster is being challenged,” said Lacroix. “And of course, the most severe critics are the private media groups who seek to limit its role and activities in order to gain a competitive advantage.”

Lacroix said CBC will push ahead with plans to use its public subsidy to expand to new platforms and create new television channels.

CBC commenter confesses desire to commit violence against Bill O’Reilly; CBC approves comment

Oh don’t be so alarmed. This is par for the course on one of the most hateful, family-unfriendly sites in North America —the state-owned, publicly funded to the tune of 1.5 BILLION per year, socialism-reliant, divisive, far-left “national treasure” (as progressives quixotically call it), the liberals’ CBC division.

geez, maybe the view should have hired me on for that o’reilly show. i’d have happily beaten o’reilly to a bloody pulp on live tv, just for being the bigoted goof that he is. just imagine the ratings that would have gotten them…

CBC commenter of hate and violence

Notice how 24 well-trained left-wing CBC hate worshipers took the time to give that violent comment their “thumbs up”.

The state-owned CBC is a “national treasure” to the extreme left in Canada.  It’s a “national disgrace” to the rest of us.  State-owned media should be banned in this country, and that notion should be enshrined in our constitution. 

And here is some more:  PTBC’s CBC Comments of Hate category.  I’ve missed most of the hate, but this provides more than sufficient evidence.

State-owned CBC calls Chilean mining company “state-owned”. Calls itself “CBC”

Here we go again!  The CBC finds it quite proper to refer to “state-owned” television in Iran, and “state-owned” this and that, here and there.  But unlike me when referring to the state-owned CBC, the state-owned CBC never refers to itself as “the state-owned CBC”.  They just say Know More anti-conservative claptrap!  Know Now!
things like “Know More —Know Now!” 

Today they referred to the “state-owned” Chilean mining, ugh, “company”, Codelco, which stands for Corporaci

State-owned CBC’s business anchor (yeah, I know, stop laughing): Obama’s “stimulus” hasn’t worked

Don’t worry, Canadians, I don’t get my business news from a state-owned, socialism-reliant news channel.  I mean come on. 

It is manifestly because I have a brain, but I’m also motivated by my access to normal, non-government, free-market, and private enterprise, and therefore better options from people who obviously like and prefer free markets and private CBC oxymoronic, with emphasis on moronicenterprise and freedom generally, like CTV’s various business shows and their sister channel BNN, also CNBC, and of course the best of them all, Fox Business Network.  But I do keep tuned-in to the state media so I can critique it, which I’ve been known to do from time to time. 

This morning, on the state-owned, socialism-reliant news channel’s “business” report (I know that’s entirely incongruous and oxymoronic with an emphasis on con and moronic, but let’s play anyway), their business guy Fred Langan said this, regarding Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke’s latest moves to meddle in the economy and try to get the U.S. economy moving, finally, after President Obama and the Democrats and progressives have wrecked it as best they could with staggering, historic debt and deficits and their huge government “health care” scam and cap and trade idiocy and new rules and regulations and causing total uncertainty, and of course the fear that the progressives will grow their socialism…

State-owned CBC requires some tests (too bad it can’t find a doctor!)

Good morning Canada!  Time for your weekly left-wing fascism checkup!  And let’s add a tyranny test as well!  And don’t forget our hourly progressive monitoring!  It’s Canada!

On reports of Glenn Beck illness: Huffington Post commenters bash the crap out of him; quote Marx.

Most of them on the CBC’s favorite source for news and commenters and “analysts”, the far-left Huffington Post blog, openly express ill-will and further sickness on Glenn Beck, as word went out on his own radio show this morning that he will take a couple days off to get test related to a possible “small fiber” problem. 

This first guy posts under the name “JesusCrist” (no doubt to show his great respect for Christians):

” Glenn Beck’s problem started with God got Beck’s brain and 4ss mixed up during construction.”

And most of them are even less intelligent, display even less of that famous liberal-left “compassion” and “tolerance” and “love of diversity”. 

One guy reflexively quotes communist/socialist Karl Marx, who is one of their gods:

“…Marx said, “the only wheels that political economy sets in motion are greed,” Marx saw that at its core Capitalism (especially unfettered, so-called free market Capitalism) births greed, which ultimately destroys Capitalism. …”

Like so many on the idiot-left, this one jumps at the chance to invoke their hate for Sarah Palin in addition to Glenn Beck:

“…He’s like some minstrel show. Maybe he’ll take a drink of Dr Palin elixir and pronounce himself healed and ready for more. …”

And lest you think it’s just dumb-ass extreme leftists who grace the HuffPo with this level of hatred and glib arrogance, A HuffPo “Moderator” chimes in with this bit o

‘IDIOT BOX’? SPOT THE REAL IDIOT! More Funky Country: Canadian TV ratings? All American.

In this week’s review of Canadian TV-viewing, we see a giant repeat:  It’s a repeat that re-repeats every week in Canada: Canada’s top-15 shows are all American. 

Top-15 TV in Canada
September 20-26, 2010

1 BIG BANG THEORY — CTV
2 HOUSE — Global
3 THE MENTALIST — CTV
4 CRIMINAL MINDS — CTV
5 SURVIVOR:NICARAGUA — Global
6 GREY’S ANATOMY — CTV
7 DANCING/STARS 11 PRF — CTV (Mon)
8 AMAZING RACE 17 — CTV
9 C.S.I. NEW YORK — CTV
10 GLEE — Global
11 HAWAII FIVE-O — Global
12 BLUE BLOODS — CTV
13 DANCING/STARS 11 RES — CTV (Tues)
14 CASTLE — CTV
15 THE DEFENDERS — CTV

Like last week’s blog entry about this, appropriately headlined “Funky Country:  Canadian TV ratings: All American; and no state-media shows make the grade,” we once again see where the progressives’ idiot box social engineering effort FAILS, despite blowing countless tens (hundreds?) of BILLIONS of taxpayer dollars at the CANADIAN IDIOT BOXprogressives’ effort to create a “Canadian Culture”…. FOR US.  A “Canadian Culture” by government decree.  By rule of law.  They think we’re incapable of creating our own culture.  So they deploy the government to do it for us.  They deploy the government to do everything for us.  The government is always the answer for progressives.  For every thing. 

Countless tens of BILLIONS of Canadian taxpayer funding of the state-owned CBC, which has itself failed utterly;  and more BILLIONS for “Canadian content” ( Canadian Culture by rule of law );  and myriad laws restricting American content;  and more laws actually forcing Canadian content ratios on people watching TV;  and other broadcast laws actually forcing the state-owned CBC (and to a lesser extent, liberalvision CTV) onto cable and satellite packages, whether citizens want them or not.

And they call the TV the idiot box?  I hereby rename progressives as “the idiot box”.  And it’s a huge box. 

Vote liberal.  Vote “progressive”.  They promise they won’t progress any more than they already have.  They’re all done now.  Yup.

* * * *
And as always, I repeat my mantra for the truly intelligent:  State-owned or state-run or state-controlled media should be banned in this country, and that notion should be enshrined in our constitution.  And as any idiot can plainly see, the liberal-left progressives should stop trying to social engineer Canadians with our own money, and with state-owned media behemoths like the CBC.

State-owned CBC spins story about a botched branch of government —as a “company” story

CBC success in helping fake people outAt left, a comment from a state-owned CBC.ca commenter.  At the end, I’ll show you today’s example of hypocrisy and hypo-irony. 

More on the blurring of lines between actual companies, and what are actually 100% state-owned branches of the government merely posing as “corporations”.  Like the CBC poses as a “corporation” as if it’s just like any other media company with shareholders and the problems associated with running a normal business in an supposedly free country.

This story reminds me of the quintessential one I wrote-up a while back, about the unhinged “customer” of the BC Lottery Corporation (yet another 100% state-owned, state-run monopoly posing as a “corporation”, which once again competes against citizens), who had totally bought into the progressives’ deception.  He was launching a law suit against “the corporation”, claiming (and reported, unquestioned, in the sycophantic media) that

CBC fails to report on polls re Obama unpopularity; but today: full report on ORGASMS poll

I always marvel at how much the progressive, liberal-left ideology and policy and interest revolves around orgasms.  Today the state-owned left-wing/progressive media, the CBC, marvels at a study done by the maker of Trojan Condoms.  The story is featured on their front page right now. 

No, they still haven’t presented any of the myriad polls and surveys that I always show you, proving how unpopular President Obama and the Democratic congress is, which is actually important, but at least we know how popular condoms are for 14-year-olds, and how popular orgasms are for men and women. 

CBC obsessed with orgasms

CBC is orgasmicAs one commenter at the state-owned, taxpayer-funded CBC.ca web site wrote, “Why would I care about anyone else’s orgasms? I don’t need this information.”

Therefore, expect a 5-part series on the CBC’s “The Passionate Eye” or “The National” starring Peter Mansbridge, regrading the latest orgasm findings.  Possibly also a how-to feature on how to get one, if you’re 14 and don’t know yet.  It’s important to the CBC.
