He has some Mac technical questions which just happen to involve a CBC broadcast. They could just as easily involve some other broadcast having nothing to do with the CBC.

You misspelled "Go out of their way to find the loonies that agree with their own views no matter how out of touch with reality they are." Not so much different than the media on this side of the line now that you mention it. -- To find that place where the rats don't race and the phones don't ring at all.

Really? CBC TV has two programs which I watch daily. Coronation Street (British) and the Simpsons (American).
