CBC’s oft-used source for political experts —the Huffington Post —in new hate du jour

Wed, 26 Mar 2008 02:15:20 PDT
CBC’s oft-used source for political experts —the Huffington Post —in new hate du jour Here’s a bit of a post from the infamous Huffington Post web site, the web site which the state-owned CBC seems to use as a go-to place to secure folks to act as guest political experts for their Newsworld news channel. They ask questions of the Huffington Post experts in order to fully inform Canadians, CBC-style. Canadians, bereft of news otherwise, could, the CBC may well think, benefit from this kind of

A Viewer Speaks

Wed, 02 Apr 2008 08:05:29 PDT
WE GET A good group of commenters here in Sticksville. Lately, we've been hearing quite a bit from a young woman from the Prairies, who has an openminded attitude toward Canadian shows, and an engaged and passionate way of defending them. On the subject of all the changes going on at the CBC, I think she's expressed the necessary corrective point of view better than Richard Stursberg, Kirstine Leyfield, or anybody else at the public broadcaster has managed to do. So I'm bumping her comment here

CBC to cut Calgary Newsworld unit, hire more Alberta reporters (CBC Edmonton)

Thu, 03 Apr 2008 11:54:39 PDT
CBC News is shutting down the Calgary unit of its 24-hour Newsworld television service as of the end of May, and introducing additional positions for newsgathering, the public broadcaster said Thursday.

CBC to boost newsgathering in Alberta, but drops Calgary Newsworld programming

Thu, 03 Apr 2008 12:39:49 PDT
The CBC will dramatically increase resources devoted to covering local and national news in Alberta generally and Calgary and Edmonton in particular. Saying it’s moving to fulfill a commitment to local newsgathering announced nationally last year, CBC News will be doubling the number of newsgathering resources in Alberta by adding approximately 25 new assignments for television journalists based in Calgary and Edmonton to focus on local and national stories originating in Alberta. At the same

Newsworld jobs: I’m sure it’s just a coincidence…

Mon, 07 Apr 2008 10:59:10 PDT
Ten new CBC News jobs in Calgary were posted this morning. These, presumably, are part of the people given back to Alberta after CBC moved — er, “reconfigured” — CBC Newsworld programming from Calgary to Toronto: 4 reporter/editors Video-journalist 4 videgraphers Switcher-Director In what I’m sure is just a coincidence, only two positions are posted for Toronto this morning: Specialist in “Contract Management” Specialist in Automation

50 Cent Don’t Like Alicia Keys Cos Alicia Keys Don’t Like Him

Sat, 19 Apr 2008 07:47:13 PDT
50 Cent has responded to Alicia Keys’ comments about Gangsta Rap being ‘a government ploy to convince black people to kill each other’ in the only way he knows how – via the art of inarticulate, meat-headed ramblings that miss the point entirely. Last week we reported that Alicia told Blender magazine that the murders of 2Pac and Biggie were a government conspiracy, and that all Gangsta’ rappers are basically being taken for a ride, the idiots. Since then Alicia has issued a statement saying

In The iPod: April 2008

Sat, 19 Apr 2008 07:48:55 PDT
Vampire Weekend has been generating a lot of buzz, but I’ve only recently heard of them. And I’m glad I did because they have a truly original sound that is part pure pop informed by African music via Paul Simon’s Graceland (Afro-pop)-which they call “Upper West Side Soweto.” This seems appropriate with references to Cape Cod and the like. Infectious 3-minute pop songs are the result. The standout s include “Oxford Comma,” “Walcott,” “Campus” and “Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa.” It’s feel good music,

Pew Research Nuggets #1 - Consumption of News Media Trends

Sat, 19 Apr 2008 04:04:06 PDT
Noticed in John Ibbitson's article this week talking about the role of internet media in this U.S. presidential race and how in 2007, 48% of American adults are reading a newspaper everyday (a drop of 6 points vs. 2001). The number, cited from Scarborough Research, seemed a little high and so I went digging for some corroboration and stumbled across a treasure trove of Pew Research media info. Sure enough, regular newspaper readership as measured by PEW was more consistent with my view of th

Florida’s Richest Families vs. Poorest Families The gap between Florida’s richest and poorest families is 15th largest in the nation. The richest 20 percent of families have average incomes 7.5 times as large as the poorest 20 percent of families. This ratio was 6.3 in the late 1980s. This growth in income inequality is the 24th largest in the nation. The very richest families — top 5% — have average incomes 12.6 times as large as the poorest 20 percent of families A Closer Look: Short- and

Given that the RSS is such a great tool for staying up to date and informed of various topics that interest you, it can also be such an annoying tool if not managed properly.

NYCC Day 1 04/19/08 8:05 AM (Above photo taken during the trade only part of theshow…it got WAY more crowed very soon.) Well, we’re just about all paneled out after today. Our day started at 11 am with the “mid sized publishers” panel. Brave Eric Lieb (our boss at Fox Atomic) and heroic James Lucas Jones from ONi made it to the panel, and since both are loquacious gents, they just took the ball and ran with it. The conversation perhaps veered too far into the comics-to-Hollywood connection
