Ah, the delicious irony of Andrew Coyne rejoining anti-conspiratorial theorist Jonathan Kay at the National Post who in his last Macleans column says there is a “sinister” plot against the CBC by cohorts Sun News, the National Citizens Coalition and Conservative MPs:
“But when you consider the links between these different organizations—the Prime Minister’s former communications director Kory Teneycke is vice-president of Sun News Network, while the director of the NCC is the former Conservative candidate and online maven Stephen Taylor—the whole thing takes on a different cast. At what point do we conclude that this relentless public mauling at the hands of government MPs and their private sector proxies is intended not merely to expose the CBC to proper scrutiny as a public agency, but to intimidate it in its function as a news organization?” (see here)
Funny how Coyne doesn’t mention anything about his new employer’s advertising deal with the CBC and how hard Kay tries to divert attention from this conflict of interest (see here).
