We talk about embarrassing missteps in left-wing reporting and Myles gladwells a discussion on the Liberal Party of Canada’s stamina. Then we theorize on conservative comedy suckiness.
Marg Delahunty and the CBC were too quick to put words in Rob Ford’s 911 call, and Harper hasn’t really undermined gay marriage in Canada (or, “why nobody gets it and everyone’s an idiot”). The Globe and Mail just appointed its first public editor, so that may help. But does the Times question about reporting the full truth and nothing but the truth go too far, or not far enough?
Jon Bershad has also pondered the conservative comedy conundrum, and Gilleen stole some thinking from him.
Our intro song paid homage to Anything Anything Anything friend Josh’s brief love affair with Library Voices. Congratulatory handclaps to Rob Ford for his weight loss challenge!
