"After all, there's no such thing as bad press"
Too true, my friend, but is interesting to see the establishment press "up there" going through the same gyrations as "down here" when FOX premiered. They will try to descredit it, then ignore it, then hate will set in as FOX finds it's audience. I'm no fan of O'Rielly, but I believe that a marketplace of news and ideas is better than a single point of view as is the case without FOX around.
The Canadian media establishment assumes, like the American media establishment assumes, that their viewers are too stupid to choose for themselves - or that viewers are unable spot the BS (That, plus they want to hold onto their marketshare). The fact is, with FOX, I see conservative and liberal points of view competing side-by-side, unlike the other news channels who slant their opinion decidedly left.
Agreed, the Canadian MSM is showing fear. It must be scary to share the spotlight with a network that isn't anti-American. Oh, the horror of it all ;)
