We don't need "Press" which only destroys the legitimacy of the Press.

We don't need the SUN to start us rolling on that ball of fun. Pretty much all of the other major media outlets in this country have been doing it for years. Even CBC decided they should start playing that game. All that SUNtv can do is make it worse.

But there should nothing wrong having a privately funded network broadcast,

Being privately funded has never been the basis of ethics for any enterprise, and it won't be for this one either.

$1:

unless, some groups feel threatened by opposing opinions being presented to the populace.

Therein lies the wrongheaded thinking that's been implanted in the minds of people who seem to think that sensationalism, kangaroo court justice and media slander are proper forms of behaviour for anything that should be called journalism. Reporting the news shouldn't be about the opinion of a talking head whose main source of information about any given subject is the latest feeds on Twitter, it should be about gathering as much information as possible and presenting it in the most critically balanced manner possible.

There comes a point where having too many opinion columns results in an unintentional disinformation campaign.

Yes!!! Sunshine girls on T.V.!!!

[bootlegga]

They hired Levant?

With his track record, this channel will be off the air in a couple of years!

Yeah what a track record huh ? Exposed the oil sands for what they are the best alternative environmentally & socially until Star Trek dilitium crystals are invented.

Stood up to the Canadian Government thought police and exposed them for what they were.

Sounds pretty Liberal to me. To bad he votes Conservative huh ?

Horrible track record.

I get it though he's too loud, if only he would shut up it would be ok.

[Chumley]

Do you think the sunshine girls will do the weather?

I was hoping for naked news myself.

I'm hoping my cable company dumps CNN from my cable package to give me this new Sun one.

Dream on. US news makes more money for the cable providers.

Me too, but this is Canada. Maybe the U.K. Sun can handle that one.

They didn't like my previous idea I wrote them about either, where they dump CNN to give me Fox.

No, it just proves my point about it being a hyper-partisan network. But I'll wait before passing final judgement.

Isn't that what you just did?

[BionicBunny]

Finally, a news program that will be more misleading and more sensational then CNN.

[N_Fiddledog]

Sun has also hired right wing radio talk jock Charles Adler. Also Krista Erickson. Wasn't she the one who was feeding questions to the Liberals for the CBC?

I'm wondering if Sun is maybe going to be more a right versus left kind of content.
