Wow. I didn’t think it’d be that high. I expected something like NPR where they get a very small amount of their money from the government and being flagged as government was technically true but functionally meaningless. (For the record, I didn’t agree with NPR being flagged as a government mouthpiece. During the Trump era they were VERY anti-Trump. If they’re owned by anyone, it’s the Democrats, but not necessarily the government.)
The government isn't a singular entity. They can be anti-Trump during Trump's reign and entirely owned by the government. Shit being anti-Trump was basically a requirement for nearly all areas of media and government, regardless of him actually being president.
At this point, basically all the Liberal media, and most of the Right Wing, should be labelled Government Funded. Because they literally are.
Basically the government (only a part of the larger "state") is the uniparty, the intelligence agencies, and their bureaucratic monkeys. Most presidents are tools.
Here's CBC's own financial statements: https://twitter.com/coinbureau/status/1647834992934879232
70.6% gov funding.
