I don't know, Tiki; if you don't give a shit now, there's precious little that I'd say that'd likely change your mind and that wouldn't be run-down as the spewing of a liberal or somesuch. I regularly watch the various newscasts and found the CBC to be the most balanced overall. CTV is clear in its leanings while Global is almost laughably inept in trying to be big league.

About the institution, I'd say it has way too much middle-management. But if there's a shakeout, guess which group will be under-represented on the dole? As for the people, there's a large talent pool that can and do put out productions that are feted around the world. And my counterparts there are making considerably less doing that than I do for some POS that'll be seen by Martha-infatuated housewives in the Canadian market alone. Something twisted there, IMHO.

To me, it seems foolish to be running-down something that has and does represent us well in the world. We have a habit of doing that as a country and I'd just as soon not see it happen again.
