"Canada's Radio Act requires that "a licenser may not broadcast....any false or misleading news." The provision has kept Fox News and right wing talk radio out of Canada "

Imagine a nation free of right wing talking heads?

I can imagine, a whole nation of kool aid drinking indoctrinated leftist assholes. Yep I can imagine.

Are you sure that's a legitimate source? It's gotta be a legitimate source before I'll believe it. That includes the Daily Show, Daily Kos, Media Matters and TruthMatters.

CRTC plan to lift ban on false news prompts political investigation

A CRTC proposal that could make it easier to broadcast false or misleading news has prompted confusion and criticism among opposition MPs and consternation in at least one of the unions that represents Canadian journalists.

It has also led to allegations of interference by the Prime Minister’s Office and a hastily called investigation by federal politicians, who were caught off guard by the move.

Then, on Jan. 10, the commission announced it was seeking comments on a proposal to change the wording of the regulation to say that it applied only in cases in which broadcasters knew the information was false or misleading and that reporting it was likely to endanger the lives, health or safety of the public. The cut-off date for public input was set at Feb. 9.

The decision caught many people by surprise.

“We’ve looked everywhere to try to find out who’s pushing this, and we can’t find anybody,” said Peter Murdoch, the vice-president of media for the Communication, Energy and Paperworkers Union, which represents more than 20,000 journalists, including those at The Globe and Mail.

“It’s totally bizarre. Nobody in the industry has called for it,” Mr. Murdoch said. “Where is the motivation for change that would lower the standards of truth and fairness in broadcast journalism?”

Because it's not true. Fox New is already in Canada as has been since 2004

Fox News Channel is currently offered by Access Communications, Bell TV, Cogeco, Eastlink, Manitoba Telecom Services, Rogers, SaskTel, Shaw Cable, Shaw Direct and Telus TV. A notable exception is Vidéotron, Canada's third largest cable company, which has not added Fox News Channel to its lineup.

There is another Canadian network "Sun News" - nicknamed "Fox news North" because of it's conservative founder- that is being launched in August. It has been granted a license and will be broadcast too.

The whole story is just a big fat lie. Some people simply WANT to believe it....

you could just hove over the link, also I love your attacking of the messanger even though all their information is sourced...

They are lying so who cares what lies they link

“The Fox network is not a good model to replicate,” Malloy said Monday. “The Fox network is remarkably biased, I think, by any standard and helped make American politics even more combative and even less substantive than before and I don’t want to see that model replicated in Canada

Sheeesh, Malloy sounds just like a Liberal-Democrat-Progressive-COMMIE here in United States.

 

[jillian]

Again, as care pointed out, canada refused to CHANGE THE RULES for fauxnews. which means that they can't tell reporters to lie like they did in this country.

 

[Stephanie]

It seems the left doesn't mind giving up their FREEDOMS of Speech and the Freedom to Hear ALL SPEECH if it can hurt SOMEONE they hate.

pitiful.

Not even close sweetie...

The actual facts: Fox news has been broadcast in Canada since 2004. Fox News never requested that any law be changed. The proposed changes to the Canadian Broadcast laws originated over 10 years ago- for reason completely unrelated to News organizations.

The committee was concerned that the regulation violated a 1992 Supreme Court ruling in the case of Holocaust denier Ernst Zundel, which found that the Charter of Rights provision protecting freedom of expression meant a person could not be charged for spreading false information.

After ignoring the committee's letters for years, CRTC finally relented and said in December it would consider changing the regulation to apply only in cases when broadcasters know the information they are sharing is untrue and when it “endangers or is likely to endanger the lives, health or safety of the public.”

The entire thread is dishonest propaganda repeated by the leftwing echo chamber.
