The Purple Rod: The Ghomeshi Scandal and the CBC: Should we Privatize the Public Broadcaster?

http://purplehelmetrod.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-ghomeshi-scandal-and-cbc-should-we.html

A blog about Winnipeg and it's people. Sunday, November 2, 2014. The Ghomeshi Scandal and the CBC: Should we Privatize the Public Broadcaster?

However, with the loss of nearly all of it's NHL games (it's main cash cow), and now the Jian Ghomashi scandal, I think it's time Canadians really took a hard look at the public broadcaster, and decide whether we want to fund the network?

http://purplehelmetrod.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html

A blog about Winnipeg and it's people. Sunday, September 22, 2013. What Happened to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers Football Club? The Winnipeg Blue Bombers. I started following the Bombers, as my Grandparents (God bless their souls), were nice enough to buy me a season ticket for years, starting in 1983, when I was old enough to finally appreciate what was happening on the field.
