...okay but I hope you can admit that while Global news is the Canadian mainstream news media equivalent to Fox News, that there is a huge difference between the two. I'd still consider Global news as reputable a source as any other mainstream Canadian news broadcaster. Whereas I don't consider Fox News to be news, journalism or anything other than propaganda and entertainment.

Yes. That said, they are extremely biased and anything on oil and gas, labour, government, or US politics I will use them as an initial source to go off and fund a viable source from.

I view them as propaganda first, news second.

Sounds like they’re like Sky in Australia. I think ours and your laws compel the news component to be a certain standard but the current affairs and opinion reporting are basically unregulated. Sky’s news is fine but the rest is right wing dogshit.
