If #cdnmedia are going to air interviews with Danielle Smith they should issue a warning first stating she is pro-Trump and anti-Trudeau She is also Pro-USA and anti-Canada IMO, she is incapable of being impartial There should also be a bullsh*t warning #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli - ThreadSky

Canadian media needs to meet the moment and challenge the lies these people tell relentlessly.

Instead of being cheerleaders for one side. Now they are merely serving their owners agenda which is even a lousy Conservative Govt is better for them than the alternative. And they’re winning - just like they did down south.

it's your duty as an informed voter to add this context . . . the media presents politicians at face value . . . only rare cases need disclaimers added, eg. Trump

canadianinalberta.bsky.social•57 days ago

And you don't think Smith is in the same category as Trump
Wow!

marcedge.bsky.social•56 days ago

she's a provincial premier, not the so-called "Leader of the Free World"

canadianinalberta.bsky.social•56 days ago

So what!
She's still in a position of authority
IMO, the degree of authority doesn't matter
Her obvious corruption matters
Her bias matters
Her lies about stealing our CPP, even is it is a lie of omission, matters
Her refusal to release the CPP survey results matters

where does it end? . . . the local mayor or dog catcher? . . . should the media issue a warning stating they are pro-Trump and anti-Trudeau, or Pro-USA and anti-Canada . . . or should citizens do their own research?

canadianinalberta.bsky.social•56 days ago

Do your own research is the mantra of the anti-vaxxers and look where that got us

If someone is a biased as Smith then, yes, that should be stated

You're justifying shoddy, biased reporting
This is a cop-out
It has allowed our media to become a propaganda machine for the far-right

Slight edit.

Great point

Having lived in several different provinces, including Alberta, I consider myself Canadian first.

At the moment I am in BC, a place I always considered as the home of nutball politicians.

In my mind, Alberta now takes the "nutball politician" title.
