In reply to GFD.

I’m assuming this is a Trump reference from someone that can barely read.

This isn’t a conspiracy where the media is conspiring, it’s three specific events that alter the way news is being covered. If anything, I think it’s saying media should be given more power to investigate.

A fundamental part of a democracy is freedom of press, and if press is being coerced through threats – we might as well just fly a yellow star on our flag.

In reply to GFD. She didn't do anything illegal, but Ian's right – it's not ethical for a news outlet to allow their journalists to help people make news. Ironically, his employer is in China and he thinks this unethical – this should speak volumes about the way Canadian press has been able to get away with this stuff.

Any self-respecting journalist wouldn’t touch that kind of stuff with a ten foot poll. If she was paid, I would just say she was a sellout. I don’t understand why she would do it for no pay however. Gambling your credibility at an event like that is very odd choice.
