Sheila Copps is wrong about CBC journalism. In her opinion piece, “Feds give CBC a budget boost,' , Copps makes an outrageous suggestion about CBC journalism. She writes: “It is hard to see how a CBC on the verge of extinction would cover an election campaign without bias. It is unlikely that journalists will exercise neutrality in news coverage when the outcome of the next election could leave them jobless.” This is absurd.
Their commitment is to the facts. Their work adheres to specific journalistic standards, and is scrutinized by two independent ombudsmen. It’s part of the reason Canadians continue to trust the work that they do, especially during elections. The next election will be no different. CBC and Radio-Canada journalists across the country will continue to give Canadians the information they need to make decisions about the future of their country. That’s their job.
