We used to pay for news papers to get the news, or listen to TV and the Radio with Ads and the CBC was well funded and respected.
I am not sure pumping more money in will help with that. I think some form of accountability for the style (Neutral and balanced) / facts / quality of corrections needs to be tied to money.
It's not pumping more money so much as it is changing the mechanism of delivery. If you're not dependent on click through rates and etc. you can afford less editorialized content
That's a great fucking point - this status quo is driving the rage baiting to a different level!
