Today the CBC announced that they were standing firmly behind partisan pollster Frank Graves rather than casting him loose to graze the open plains. I have also read opinions from a number of people who think Kory Teneycke's days are numbered, not because he is doing a poor job, but because he does it too good and seems to ruffle a lot of feathers. I'm just wondering who from Soloman's merry band will be the first to be released?
I probably should have included Rosemary Barton in my poll, but I almost feel pity on her. I'm not sure there is any other job in society that she's qualified to do, and I feel as though there is a high probability that she would spend a significant amount of time on EI, welfare, or both. It sucks that she gets paid in tax dollars, but even if she got the boot she'd likely still be getting paid in tax dollars in perpetuity. We may as well allow her to continue dressing up in cute outfits wandering around the halls of Parliament like a lost puppy dog looking for scraps of food. It's that or pogey.
I did run a similar poll a little over a week ago that asked a similar question, except that it looked to the whole Canadian media and who was most likely to breach ethical standards. My new poll question focuses on regular characters who appear on Soloman's Island, and who will be the first to go for whatever reason.
WHICH CANADIAN JOURNALIST DO YOU THINK IS THE MOST LIKELY TO BE FORCED TO RESIGN FOR REPORTING A FALSE OR SLANDEROUS NEWS STORY?
Bob Fife (33%)
Terry Milewski (32%)
Jane Taber (21%)
Jim Traverse (6%)
Julie Van Dussen (4%)
Is Julie Van Dusen TRYING to scare us with her hair?
ReplyDeleteI bet the CBC does fire Kory, just to prove a point to the government, and that is that they have all the power not the government. The problem is that CTV is just as bad, if not worse than CBC. At least we all know CBC are Liberal shrills, CTV disguises their Liberal bias better. I have much better ways to spend a billion a year and it's not on CBC.
ReplyDeleteIf the cbc fires Kory it will prove our point in spades. It will also prove that the cbc can't handle the truth.
ReplyDeleteRegardless, ekos has been tarnished and will probably lose business from other groups that use it for polls.
Trust me, Graves is going to pay a hefty price for all this, even if the CBC stands behind him.
ReplyDeleteOriginally I was going to make the poll just Teneycke or Graves, but I decided to add a few options.
ReplyDeleteEvidently many Tories don't think Kory will be employed much longer. What a disgrace it would be if Graves kept his gig, and Kory got canned for calling him out on the air. It is unwise to attack the Soloman's exclusive pollster if you work on the Soloman Show.
Soloman is (OTL) out-to-lunch. The bias is so obvious and only the "hacks" attempt to deny or repel any flack that comes their way.
ReplyDeleteBut the show goes on and some things never change. I can't see Kory getting the pink slip as it would look convincingly "BAD" for the CBC, but then again, I could be wrong.
Still awaiting an answer from the CBC ombudsman with respect to EKOS manipulator Graves - but I wont hold my breath.
You can fool some of the people some of the time.....Well, you all know the rest!

ReplyDeleteThey(CBC) has too stand by Graves ICEMAN, they are all in together so to get rid of Graves CBC will also have to expose itself and the LPOC.
Pollster boy Graves is not going to take the fall for any one.
Have you heard anything on television about the $61million which Graves got from the Liberals?
There you go.
