Industry groups have long warned that the migration of advertising revenue from content producers to Silicon Valley giants has hurt the news business and helped hollow out newsrooms.
It should be a priority. I'm tired of listening to the CBC parrott whatever Trudeau says and pretend they are providing insightful coverage of Canadian news.
Because Trudeau does not care about the Media. HE SAYS he cares BuT as always with Trudeau he Is always SAYING things and doing NOTHING. shameonTrudeau TrudeauMustGo
So what is the priority since this country is on fire! Giving money to students, China or the corrupt WHO while neglecting the very sectors responsible to achieve a rapid recovery on our economy? Listening to Dr Chopstick who won’t answer questions? CanadianPM s Canada....
Why do you insist on tweeting attention grabbing headlines these days? It’s counterproductive and we as Canadians expect more from you. Who has taken over your social media over the past couple months?!
