      I’m confused. what does this have to do with the CBC? The network that fired her is CTV.

        I guess my point was not laid out very well. I highly doubt CBC would be firing someone for this, yet CTV is. The Conservatives want a news agency that will fire someone for speaking the truth and attending a rally about the death of their own people.

          Yes, I definitely agree with that. Conservatives want to have media that they can control. The Liberals are at least conflicted about it.

      The Conservatives fully support Israel, and have both party policy and recent statements proving that.

      They don’t like the CBC, but bias on this topic is not one of the issues they have with them.

        I didn’t explain enough I guess, CBC has stood behind minority reporters before and it sure they would do it again while as CTV will fire them.

      Conservatives want private news agencies to be able to fire anyone they please and to remove protections.

        Probably, but CBC has fired journalists in the past over controversies. They must want it to be even easier to dismiss people.
