So yesterday I was fed a story in my news app that enraged me. #Cdnmedia is in a crisis. The rank inability to employ logical reasoning, the pushing of a narrative for political ends, is not reporting. It is propaganda & it misinforms the public, not the opposite. #cdnpoli ImageImage
It was more shockingly poor reporting on Chinese interference, implying a connection where no factual evidence is provided. Merely a faulty attempt to draw conclusions without substantiating anything. Just garbage reporting. #CdnmediFailed #cdnpoli ImageImageImageImage
The article even admits it has no evidence, merely wild speculation implying that the drop in #Conservative votes is due to a vague implication of Chinese interference. Chiu lost & because he lives in a RW bubble, imagines that it must be “interference”…#CdnMediaFailed #cdnpoli ImageImage

Remember who #RobertFife is. He published false information leaked from anonymous sources demonstrating that Maher Arar was a terrorist (he wasn’t). Fife’s reporting was instrumental in not only the false smearing of Arar, but also Arar’s torture in Syria. thewalrus.ca/hear-no-evil-w…
But worse than that. It wasn’t only a glaring #CdnMediaFail. It was an attempt to smear the Chrétien/Martin gov’t, working on securing Canadian citizen, Arar’s, release from a Syrian prison. Top RCMP & CSIS officials were implicated in the leak. The smear of Arar was political.
So I can’t help but find the timing of Fife being the vessel for re-releasing an old report re 🇨🇳’s interference in 🇨🇦’s affairs (on many fronts, for years) to be more than a tad suspect. Especially given the failure on the part of intelligence agencies & policing re the Convoy.

Hey @CTV NEWS group. I writing this as yet another reminder that as usual you never to report on abouto the actual reasons the gas prices and inflation are increasing. Oh wait you do report it's al the federal government fault to scare viewers yet you FAIL daily to report that ⬇
Corporate GREED has companies literally BRAGGING about increasing prices because the pandemic is great for price gouging. It is CEO and investors BRAGGING that they will make a killing off of people that work hard or are on fixed income as they will need to pay more. It is ⬇
Beyond shameful that your 6 pm anchors are baseless who*ing themselves out for Russia, the Canada conservatives and American Republicans are paying you. Post Media 92nd you which means your so called news is actual more like propaganda.

TRIGGER WARNING.
1. A few years ago I heard about a horrific story where a developmentally delayed 13 y/o (who operated at the level of a 7 y/o, according to her mother) became pregnant from being raped by her stepfather. Anti-abortion groups sued the abortion provider. #elxn44
2. You read that correctly. Anti-abortion groups did not mount an action against the child’s abuser, but against the abortion clinic. Poilievre, Candice Bergen, Michael Barrett, Ed Fast, & every single #CPC MP on that list above, also believe….
#NeverVoteCPC #StopTheCPC #elxn44
3….what those anti-choice groups believed: this child should’ve been forced to carry a pregnancy resulting from horrific abuse.
In the beliefs of these #CPC MPs - who would be in charge of people’s lives - there should be no rape or incest exceptions. #NeverVoteCPC #elxn44
