Each time I see him on television these days, Terry Milewski reminds me more and more like the CBC's own left wing version of Geraldo Rivera. On most days he simply reports the news, but occasionally he sits down to attempt trying to tell you what the news means. These are the moments when the windows to Terry's own personal opinions are opened, and we get to have a peak behind the looking glass.
Geraldo has almost become a symbol of ludicrous reporting, where he will frequently sensationalize unspectacular scoops. It would be comical to watch Terry pursue this path where he is becoming a satire of himself, if not for the fact that his salary is subsidized with tax dollars. As a tax payer, I do not want any part of funding the Terry Milewski experiment. I much preferred the gal he replaced Susan Bonner. She at least tried to appear non partisan, however fleeting that effort may have been.
Today as an analyst on the Soloman Show, Terry said that we should not accept information from Afghan officials, even if it leads to a kidnapped journalist. He again repeated his assertion that the redacted portions of the released detainee documents do not contain any information relevant to national security, even though he can't possibly know what was written on all the original documents which are being reviewed by Justice Iacobucci.
Terry Milewski looked ridiculous today on Power Play. Kory did a good job holding him to account but i was disappointed to watch the other two pundits come to Terry milewski's defence.
ReplyDeleteIt also reminded me of the cone of silence enforced by CBC when Melissa Fung was kidnapped to supposedly protect her. The CBC does not worry about protecting canadaian soldiers. Terry milewski reports secret sensitive documents nightly on the National with no apparent regard to the safety of our brave Canadian soldiers.
Terry Milewski does look like Geraldo!!! Wow. And his journalistic integrity looks like Geraldo's too! Double-plus-wow. What a fart catcher! Please stop the madness and get rid of the CBC.
ReplyDeleteWell we all know how good a job Milewski's predecesser, Keith Boag did as the CBC Senior Correspondent.
ReplyDeleteThis man has to go, he has not and will never show any objectivity on anything concerning the present government.
This might explain Milewski's sphincter puckering:
ReplyDeleteCBC sees 12M drop in funding..hahahaha

He is so bloody annoying I can't believe he's got that prime spot...when he was in vancouver i always felt he was excitable, and that shift from leg to leg he does when standing. Oh boy, I didn't even get to the content .. lol
ReplyDeletePaul Hunter is really good I have to say.
In hindsight I am sorry if I offended any Geraldo Rivera fans. I know FNC is popular among the guests to my site, but let's be honest, the man is a joke.
ReplyDeleteAnd that shift from leg to leg that he does as part of his shtick really looks like he desperately needs to squeeze out a bowel movement while presenting his theses.
Iceman - now you have forced me to schedule at least 4 hrs CBC watching one of these days as it looks like all the comedians have left the comedy channels and found work at the CBC and as I am partial to comedies... so be it... watch CBC for 4 straight hrs I will. God help me.
ReplyDeleteTerry is a strange man and fascinates me for that reason. His intense slightly cross-eyed stare and rapid fire delivery combine to suggest a caricature off SNL, or the old SCTV. I start laughing and then lose track of what he's saying. Visualizing him with a snootful of pepper spray No. 9 just cracks me up.
ReplyDeleteMore seriously... I'd bet CBC management would let this self-inflated gas bag go if it wasn't going to cost them a grazillion to break the contract.
with so many well-qualified people looking for work its amazing this clown can't be replaced. his slanted and distorted news presentation is an outrage.
ReplyDeleteTerry Mileski is comes across as some sort of Liberal zealot. It appears he truly hates conservatives & I certainly resent my tax dollars supporting him but wait....to a lesser degree I will include Peter Mansbridge with his God complex.

Terry Milewski is a God and you Con-bots should wake up and smell the coffee.
