I always saw a certain political bend when Don Newman had his TV show and it never leaned to the right but since his retirement from his show, is it just me, or has he turned it up a few notches?
I never found him to be quite this badly anti-Harper during the Politics show the exception being at the height of the media spat (Newman was president of the Parliamentary Press Gallery at one time) but he’s been on a tear since no?

Sean Holman writes if Gordon Campbell will be announcing his retirement on his return from Maui as Holman ponders who Campbell is referring to when he said it’s up to “everybody else” (when he quits).
“British Columbians may have re-elected the Campbell administration. But they’ve never been especially fond of the premier.
It’s rumoured at least some caucus members want to see Campbell gone. And there’s dissent among the Liberals’ business backers.
So if the premier really is leaving his future up to “everybody else,” he’ll soon be packing his bags.
But if that does happen, what will it mean for the Liberals – a party whose policies in government are set by the inclement interests, associations and friendships of its leader?
Having no grassroots to speak of, the Liberals are little than more than a vessel for corporate interests and contributions.”
