I doubt that it's bad for democracy. My own thing is that I already know who's involved with it. Consequently I'm making the conscious choice to ignore it altogether, just like I do with practically all other televised news. I'll stick with the internet for what I want, thank you very much. I have no interest in watching a station that's main attractions will probably include some ridiculous horse's ass hatchet-job artist like Ezra Levant channelling Glenn Beck. Fuck that kind of sub-moronic shit.
This seems to be a common sentiment in my social circle. I rarely watch Canadian TV news anymore or the political shows I used to enjoy. Now both just piss me off. I'm even mulling binning my National Post subscription as the in-depth reporting and good editorials seem to be a thing of the past.
Traditional media has been dumbed down and is increasingly partisan. It's become boring and a tad annoying and less than up-to-the-minute.
