Is the National Post working in tandem with Sun News?

Jymn — Sat, 23 Feb 2013 22:06:40 +0000

I can’t help but notice that National Post’s Jonathan Kay has been trumpeting Sun News Network and Ezra Levant lately. Which seems odd in that Kay works for Sun Media’s primary competitor, Postmedia.

It’s not just the free praise and publicity that Kay has showered on Levant and co. It’s most likely a coincidence . . . → Read More: Is the National Post working in tandem with Sun News?

Sue-Ann Levy destroys her career in Tweets

I’m joking of course. Sue-Ann Levy is employed by Lorrie Goldstein and Sun Media. Nobody gets fired over at that outfit. Ezra Levant regularly has to apologize for his blatant racism and lies. But he still resides on the Sun News Network throne. Let’s face it – the right is a no-pink-slip zone.

Sun News Network + Jason Kenney = frothy mixture

If you ever wanted to combine the worst of Conservatism – that frothy mixture of deceit, barely-veiled racism and amoral opportunism – look no further than the perfect marriage of the Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism and Fox News North.

Six federal bureaucrats were drafted to pose as new Canadians for a citizenship reaffirmation ceremony broadcast on . . . → Read More: Sun News Network + Jason Kenney = frothy mixture

My five minutes watching Sun News Network. Plus, what does it take to be an SNN host?

BREAKING. Fox News North quotes Margaret Atwood: “Libaries (sic) cause cancer”

Jymn — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 12:51:05 +0000

Well, not the real Sun News Network. But 22 Minutes’ Geri Hall does a bang-on impression of a Krista Erickson Fox News North type host ‘quizzing’ Margaret Atwood. It goes something like this:

Host: “Don’t libaries (sic) cause cancer”?

Atwood: “Of course not”.

Host “Oh, I didn’t realize you were a medical doctor? Are . . . → Read More: BREAKING. Fox News North quotes Margaret Atwood: “Libaries (sic) cause cancer”

Sun News Network and the emasculation of the North American right wing

I haven’t had that much exposure to Fox News North but from what I’ve seen there’s obviously something fishy happening at that network which is symptomatic of a bigger issue with the North American right-wing male of the species. Listening to Brian Lilley’s chipmunk voice or recoiling from Mark Bonokoski’s lispy spittle or laughing . . . → Read More: Sun News Network and the emasculation of the North American right wing

Another blow for Sun News Network. Loses preferred access to more than three million Canadian TV screens.

While QMI outlets like to brag about how Fox News North (AKA Sun News Network) is ‘smoking‘ its news rivals, things aren’t looking so rosy for the right wing propaganda channel. This October, the network will lose its over the air free access; it will only be seen by those subscribers whose cable company has . . . → Read More: Another blow for Sun News Network.
