Just say no, CRTC. A thousand times no.

Sun Media isn’t making it in the marketplace that it champions. The invisible hand is around its throat. So it wants the state to make us all pay it a subsidy.

The network says it needs the money to ensure its survival, because advertising revenue has been difficult to obtain and it is having trouble convincing Canadians to subscribe to the specialty packages that include its signal.

What? Canadians aren’t flocking in droves to your far-right, racist dung-heap with its high-school production values and hateful commentary? And now you want to force me and others to help you produce more dung?

“This is live or die for us,” said Kory Teneycke, vice-president of Sun News.

So just die, already.
