Rules
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
As more and more traditional media die, the more we need CBC. It's only becoming more important.
The conservatives truly want to destroy Canada, they look to the south, see the divided country down there, and say "yes, please, some of that up here"
Only fools would conclude that the problem of executive bonuses is caused by a public funding model. If you thought private companies don't hand out outlandish bonuses to executives, you haven't been paying attention.
We can go back to "reforms" Harper government done like muzzling scientists and defunding projects serving public interest. Of course those same people would want to defund the only outlet not in their pockets. I haven't seen a single point on Conservative agenda that is not going to harm average person short or long term. yet people still vote them in and Liberals behaving like entitled pricks do not make situation any better. Even NDP has shifted to the right. There's no federal party with representation in Parliament that has workers as a central point of their agenda. Everything is now about business which is very much not the same
Trudeau has run his course and has become too entrenched. People are screaming for change and we never vote NDP. Pollieve is poison. He's going to gut our desperately needed social programs for tax cuts that benefit corporations the most.
I will never understand the thing about Canadians refusing to vote for the only major party that plans to actually improve their lives.
The CBC is a big part of the reason Canada isn't as messed up as the US.
Canada has for-profit media and plenty of media that leans left or right. But, CBC exists to anchor that media universe with a boring, institutionalist, honest view.
The US has NPR and PBS but I'm guessing they're not as influential as the CBC is in Canada
And theyβve already had massive funding cuts and corporate sponsors stepped in.
Most people would just say CBC should be run differently, but everyone familiar with the Conservatives know they really just itching to do a fire sale for all crown properties.
Any problems the CBC has will be dwarfed by the massive problems having a for profit media cause.
When money becomes the only goal, society will be harmed.
As much as I like the cbc, the upper management should not be handing out bonuses while workers are being laid off.
Some of these bonuses are part of the performance evaluation they already signed on and whether they met these objectives or not. You can't really go back on an agreement made before the cuts.
That should be good news to the staff being let go. Pretty sure they had agreements too.
