[Craic] Why Tara Henly resigned from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation

[Mr. Gillis]

I have to agree Allan and Art the CBC regrettably has descended into being
nothing more than a sounding board for the government party line rather
than an instrument of critical journalism.  It is very disturbing that
there is not more resistance in the ranks of its journalists.  However, the
silence and overt hostility towards Julian Assange by all mainstream media
is a good indicator of where they stand.
