Fox News: Fair and Balanced?

I recently posted this article: “CBC: Keeping Canadian Voters Confused by Paying Rex Murphy to Spout Nonsense on Climate Change” in response to a diatribe by Rex Murphy on climate change. Murphy thinks a former mining stock promoter and an economist are more credible than Canada’s climate scientists. I think this is a travesty, and I wasn’t the only one. I wrote the Ombudsman and a friend of mine wrote The National’s Executive Producer. The reply he received was absolutely shocking. Don’t count on the CBC for “truth”; they don’t believe it exists.

Mr. Harrison, the Executive Producer, correctly points out that the CBC has covered climate change fairly extensively. However, read some of the quotes from Mr. Harrison’s email and see if you think the CBC is a trustworthy source of information – or worthy of your tax dollars. [Note: I have pasted the full email here.]
