Revision as of 10:06, February 24, 2022
, 10:06, February 24, 2022→Accusations of liberal bias, fake news, racism and journalistic unprofessionalism: info and reflinks added
In February 2022, the CBC ludicrously claimed, without proof, that the anti-CCP flu mandate [[Freedom Convoy]] in [[Ottawa]] was being manipulated by "Russian agents"<ref>[https://www.rebelnews.com/cbc_says_freedom_convoy_protesters_manipulated_by_russian_agents CBC says Freedom Convoy protesters manipulated by Russian agents] at Rebel News</ref> (basically another rehashing of the "Russian bot" canard against anything supported by conservatives which liberals do not like, while ignoring the history of the Left supporting Russia when it was under Communist rule as part of the USSR during the Cold War). In an act of journalistic unprofessionalism, the CBC later gleefully and criminally harassed financial donors to the Freedom Convoy who were victimized when they were illegally doxxed as part of the cybercriminal hacking attack against GiveSendGo, which had been hosting crowdfunding efforts to support the trucker convoy and its anti-CCP flu mandates protests;<ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/02/15/exclusive-cbc-harassing-canadians-doxed-givesendgo-hack/ Exclusive — CBC Harassing Canadians Doxed in GiveSendGo Hack] at Breitbart News Network</ref> in doing so, however, the CBC has implicitly admitted that they now openly side with criminals.

Because of its left-wing bias and pushing of Liberal Party and SJW propaganda in the majority of its programming ([[Canadian Broadcasting Corporation#Low ratings|see below]]) while being funded by taxpayer money and simultaneously competing for advertising money (via CBC Television and sister French network Ici Radio-Canada Télé) with privately-owned English TV networks CTV, [[Global Television Network|Global]] and Citytv, French-language private networks TVA and Noovo and [[independent station]]s, critics of the CBC who object to the use of taxpayer funds to support its liberal bias have, over the years, called for the privatization (or in some cases, the abolition) of the CBC.<ref>Multiple references:
