Hi Yve,

We "lefties" once considered the BBC, CBC (Canada), and NPR (National Public Radio) as objective sources of news withb a humanistic tone. All have been ideologically tuned in very bad ways. The BBC lost it's authenticity when it radically reduced the number of reporters stationed all over the world. NPR went from National Public Radio to National Pentagon Radio when we invaded Iraq. NPR reporters traveled with our troops and had no independent presence. Since then, it's developed so called "liberal" corporate sponsors as support, with less and less listener support.

The CBC in Canada retains some integrity, but was and is still dependent on the BBC for reporters who are no longer there. It's a weak voice.

There is no longer an authentic liberal voice in world news anywhere--and there hasn't been for some time.

All our American news organizations are commercial--trying to lure viewers to watch "commercials" rather than reporting what's going on.
