Can anybody say just more CBC hypocrisy?
Yes, they shouldn't have any rights to the material they produce. How dare they defend their hard work by calling out the blatant lies of the CPC.
Just another CPC lie caught by the media.
Hard work? The CBC hasn't worked hard since it became the taxpayer funded propaganda wing for the Liberal Party of Canada. And yes you're right, they have every right to the material they produce and as such can sue anyone they want.
The CBC still breaks more exclusive stories than the other networks, without all the click bait. And they do it against whichever party hold the majority in the Parliament, even the Liberals.

But, just in case you forgot, they're still a taxpayer funded media outlet paid for by all Canadian no matter their political affiliation, a fact which makes their decision to sue the Conservatives for unauthorized use of their intellectual property while giving the Liberals a free pass more than a little hypocritical.
But of course the CBC is never biased are they? Or, is that just mantra that the CBC supporters cling to in the hopes that no one notices actions like this?
Copyright exists to let the producer of a work decide how it is used. The Conservatives can cite it, as a fair use work. But what they can't do is re-work the media to represent something the author didn't intend. That is illegal. In fact, the Harper Conservatives were the ones who reinforced that part of copyright law when they began the negotiations for the TPP.
Odd you would condone an illegal action by the CPC, while chastising the Liberals when theybreak the law.
And why do you always return to 'bias'? Everyone and everything has bias. You have bias. I have bias. The important part is telling the Truth, something the CBC is trying to force the CPC into doing.
