Stephen LeDrew & Jesse Brown: Saving Canadian News from the CBC

Stephen LeDrew welcomes Jesse Brown, founder and publisher of Canadaland, for a blunt conversation on what’s gone wrong with Canadian journalism.Brown argues that Canada’s national broadcasters - including the CBC - are turning their focus away from Canadian stories in favour of U.S. headlines and celebrity scandals. Canadaland, by contrast, is filling that vacuum with fearless reporting and investigations that would otherwise go untold, from the WE Charity scandal to deep dives into Canada’s media, politics, and institutions.Together, LeDrew and Brown ask the tough question: if the CBC won’t tell Canada’s story, who will? A fast, candid Three Minutes on media priorities, public funding, and why independent journalism matters now more than ever.You can support Canadaland here - https://canadalandnetwork.supercast.com/ Hosted on Acast.
