I like the CBC. I find it informative and a pretty decent way to give Canadian talent a chance to be heard. Have you ever listened or watched US media? It's watered down pablum for the masses who respond to sloganeering. Call CBC provincial or pedestrian or even colonial but I'd rather have some national media entity trying to promote a Canadian point of view than SUN TV.
Gee train, you really have thin skin if you read JB's post as insulting others who don't watch CBC.Okay you guys that insult people who don't watch the CBC and who, presumeably, like shows no one else does (based soley on the ratings). Tell us which CBC shows you like the best. No Coronation Street or other BBC import allowed or Jeopardy or US import allowed either (these were the two top rated CBC TV shows excluding Hockey Night in Canada).
C'mon why do you think its great?
CBC isn't all about ratings. Much of it's mandate as outlined in an earlier post has little to do with ratings. Try watching CBC North someday.
