The CBC has apologized to a viewer who complained that a news graphic appeared to juxtapose the name of the prime minister-designate with the German word "heil" -- a salute usually associated with Adolf Hitler. The graphic was flashed during Tuesday night's edition of The National. It appeared beneath a shot of a Stephen Harper election sign. In an e-mail to the viewer, the executive producer of The National explained the graphic was a freeze frame of typing intended to promote the show's "campaign confidential" segment. An editor chose to capture part of the word "their" for the graphic and with a cursor before the "r", it seemed to spell heil. "We sincerely apologize for that," the e-mail said.
They now have REAL Nazis in Palestine.
This is an excellect video exposing the CBC's leftist advocacy in the name of "news." Canadians are going to upset the Left's applecart of news monopoly if they keep this up on the interent! Has the Canadian Left outlawed this type of opposition as hate speech yet as they did with anti-homosexual sex speech? They will try with the help of the CBC to censure the internet in the name of ending hate speech.
