Talk about contempt for Canadian people who have few options when it comes to Canadian news regarding this election. Seniors who are not computer savy, like my mother have to rely on CBC and local news outlets for information. It is a gross injustice. And our youth who are indoctrinated by such biased coverage. I have spent hours researching this election, taking time away from my family, staying up until 1 or 2 in the morning reading, interacting with Canadians I have met across the country via Twitter and Facebook. Not because I don’t know who I support but because I want to know the Conservative Party of Canada’s stand as fully as possible. The up side is I have made some good connections, the down side is the disillusionment I have toward our MSM to the point that I will never watch their programming again without questioning every motive behind their words.

If that is the case, seems some of the appointees should get the boot and we should have a board that reflects supporters of all the parties by representation.

CBC is a crown corporation which has a defined mandate by the Ministry of Heritage… the minister of which appoints the board of directors.

I would be interested to see your numbers for the chart.
Also, you may find that your claim that “these powerful positions are appointed by the government and that state media should of course be unbiased” to be untrue. CBC is not a state-run news network and the positions are not appointed by the government.

[...] The embarrassing thing? This Conservative government appointed him to the Ceeb’s board, a board whose bias against Conservatives I’ve written about in the past. [...]
