For Canadians only: is CBC basically a Canadian Fox News?

@Pikachu You live in Toronto, I assume.

@WoodyAq

You know what happens when you assume😉

No i do not.

@Pikachu So what's your excuse?

@WoodyAq

What's yours?😁

@Pikachu I'm from the west, and have endured literally decades of CBC crap ... repented in hindsight, of course, but never with any foresight.

@WoodyAq

I don't know what to tell you, guy.
In my view, they do a pretty balanced job of reporting the news.

@Pikachu The problem is: that may say more about you than them.

@WoodyAq

Right back at ya😁

@Pikachu Yeah, except with the 😁, you are confirming my narrative, and undermining your own, so ... 😁

@WoodyAq

if you say so😁

@Pikachu You ain't helping your case, dude. First law of holes, and all that.

@WoodyAq

lol what case do you think has been made on one side or the other?


All you've said is you don't like the CBC. All i've said is that i do.
You have presented no justification for your opinion.

Why do you think i'm smiling?😁😁😁

@Pikachu No. I've said the CBC is biased, like Fox News. You claimed it isn't.

Now you are claiming that the issue is you like the CBC and I don't. Which is not the case to be proven, but is a standard technique that people use to avoid facts. So ... 😁

@WoodyAq

lol sorry i didn't use you're exact wording but the point was clear. Or at least is should have been.
You've misrepresented my position.That's called a strawman. It's a standard technique that people use when they don't actually have an argument😏
Although to be fair, it was more of a red herring.

It changes nothing. You've made no case, you've simply stated your opinion.
As have i since i disagree, that appears to have bothered you which is why you started focusing on my use of emoticons.

And that's why i find this so funny 😁😁😁

@Pikachu I've got numerous examples, going back years.

But your wording was amply clear, just not in the way you assume.

It isn't a strawman, it is called a Freudian slip, and it reveals your true mentality, whatever you may have claimed.

@WoodyAq

Ah, personal criticism. The knee jerk reaction for the outmaneuvered😏


lol perhaps but you've presented none of them here and as such you have made no case and no argument.
You shared an opinion, i shared mine. It seems that this upset you so you started a fight.
But while you were good for a couple laugh, this has become...tedious.

Go fight with someone else 😁👍

I'm taking my ball and going home? Yeah, that's convincing.😒
