Bell Canada Owes Canadians
Why we all need local news.
I'm delighted to be writing today at Canadian Journalist about Bell Canada's plan to shut down even more newsrooms, and why the Canadian government should step up and insist that Bell live up to their promises to the CRTC. #CDNpoli
Today’s politicians seem to fear the media and critics of media more than ever. But the fact is they have, if they choose to use them, measures that would leave every town and city with a healthy, responsible, and professional news media. Canada can, if the government chooses, again have news media in which corporate profits come with a responsibility to serve the communities in which they operate.
