Just turned on CBC News Network Live and they were talking about how “by far” Melania’s hat is getting the most attention of the day.
I’m so tired of our media. Trump issued at least 26 executive orders, Elon did the nazi salute multiple times, Trump commented on tariffs… but we have to talk about this hat!
For what it’s worth, Wikipedia’s news section seems highly factual and not editorialized. It shouldn’t be this hard to get news though.
That’s capitalism, baby! Say goodbye to reporting on things that actually impact people, we need clicks and attention to drive that sweet ad revenue, even if it means letting journalistic integrity slide while we report on the attire of the new fascist regime instead of their policy.
CBC should not be as beholden to capital as commercial news is, which is why this is particularly disappointing and also why the Conservatives promise to destroy it.
