Yanks Want Their CBC, Eh

I Want My CBC
The 2010 and 2012 Olympic Coverage in Canada is being carried on the CTV consortium and not CBC, which is torquing off Americans near the Canadian Border, who tend to despise NBC's coverage, not noted for carrying all events live to the USA & prefer CBC's complete coverage.

NBC affiliates in the Canadian Border areas have seen their ratings spike due to CBC losing the TV rights and the inavailability of CTV on cable. Americans in those regions love objectivity, missing from Coverage on NBC Sports, which I find to be a "Shill-a-Thon", with objectivity missing from NBC Sports.

Come Back, CBC. Besides, on Podcasts of The National, I Miss Mr Mansbridge.

& Andy Rooney Has Met His Match-The Redoubtable Rex Murphy

Do Click on The Title, Please. We in this Country do watch Andy Rooney on CBS 60 Minutes, but in Canada, a Commentator of such rare common sense, called Rex Murphy, native of Newfoundland, should be viewed. I believe you'll like him. In this CBC Video, he speaks of that Canadian Institution, now showing up in the US called Tim Horton's, a Coffee House establishment all over Canada.

Enjoy!

Gregorian Chant At It's Silliest-From The Rick Mercer Report On CBC



Canadians watch "The Rick Mercer Report", a satirical look at the News. They even make fun of Parliament:

For The BEST English Language Newscast In North America

Click on The Title:

Peter Mansbridge, the Best Anchor in North America, was not on Friday Night, but Mark Kelley was, as was Alison Smith;

I'm not talking about FOX News Channel, nor CNN, nor CBS, NBC or ABC;

It's CBC's "The National";

They even covered the story on 17 Girls, in a "Pregnancy Pact" story from Gloucester, MA, without any sensationalism;

You want news? CBC has it for you, in depth;

"Anne Of Green Gables", the novel, is 100 Years Old and that was covered in depth;

The Best "Super Tuesday" Coverage Was NOT On US TV

I suggest that when you want the best news coverage in North America, that you click on the title above:

The Network? CBC;

The News Show? "The National";

Peter Mansbridge is THE BEST ANCHORMAN In North America.Also, quite good are Alison Smith, Susan Orbiston, & Mark Kelley, CBC Correspondents;

Our Neighbors in Canada ran the best "Super Tuesday" coverage with In Depth Coverage, which puts our networks to shame;

There was no "Fluff" in this newscast;

It's a THINKING Person's Newscast;
