Remember CNN stories need to be playable across boarders. Bashing America Stories sell in france, not stories showing the USA is better than france etc. Thus the CNN stories have to be repackable for more markets. CNN is a video wire service not a true news organization.
It is probably why canada fears Fox News. They don't want a free press, the want a free reign of the left press.

You will also remember CNN admitted that they gave Saddam a veto over their news coverage from Iraq, how do we know this isn't true elsewhere???

CNN is a video wire service not a true news organization CNN has a separate foreign feed, nothing to repackge. Watched it during the war last year. Thought we lost till I came home, all about "setbacks" and dead civilians. You're right though, it's editorializing, not news.

FYI FOX News is in France, among many other countries that seeth with jealous hatred, but, as you point out, Canada is not among them. The only country outside of the US where you can watch MSNBC is Canada.
