Other than the usual skeleton crew at CBC yawning and knocking back Starbuck lattés on Christmas Eve, what else were they doing?
Describing for a non-requesting, night-before-Christmas world the source of a streak of light that appeared over the night skies in Germany.
These news hounds are masters when it comes to explaining rather than just reporting the news.
The streak in the night sky apparently worried folk in Germany, France and Belgium.
“Videos of the streak of light were captured across Germany, but also in France and Belgium. (The Blaze, Dec. 26, 2011).
“It lit up the night sky in Germany on Christmas Eve. And now there’s rampant speculation, even debate, about what exactly the streak of light was.
“The leading edge of the streak appears round and white, while the tail trailing it has an orange tone in some images,” CBC News in Canada reports.”
The tail trailing it had an “orange” tone in some images?
CBC talking heads reached another consensus.
So there you have it. With the whole world wondering what it was, CBC delivered the whole scoop in one sentence.
And on Boxing Day, CBC was on Glenn Beck’s blog, The Blaze.
Glenn, now that we Canucks finally got your attention, CBC officially stands for Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Unofficially: The Communist Broadcasting Corporation.
CBC was leaning left long before a guy called Barack Obama wandered onto left field.
One Blaze commenter got CBC right on the money:
“CBC reported on it ? I’d believe anything that little girl had to say about it, over that ONE BILLION DOLLAR PER YEAR TAXPAYER FUNDED FAR LEFT BUNCH OF HACKS any day!”
The little girl saw the streak with the eyes of an innocent. To her it was Santa’s coach led by a moose on the way to her house.
You can rest quietly, American friends. CBC is here protecting you from all suspicious streaks in the night skies.
