News you can agree with
Although a fun topic for conversation, it's not really possible to pass judgment on Kory-TV until it really takes shape. And even after that, it will probably take a while to develop its identity.

But for what it's worth, my instinctive reaction - which I'm sure Pierre Karl Péladeau has been losing sleep waiting for - is mixed.

On one hand, it's always nice when stories about media shrinkage and convergence are countered by a bold new venture. It's good for journalists to have more jobs, and - from an editorial perspective, at least - it's good for those of us at other outlets to have more competition. And in principle, it's good for consumers to have more choice.

But at the same time, the prospect that it really takes off drives home a nagging fear that I've had for years.

So who are some of the other names to come out tomorrow, working for Kory and $$ES?

2. Meh...
I'm only opposed to this because they're being portrayed as a balance to CBC's "propaganda" (which in reality is truth-telling, though not to the same degree as some radical outles, due to the network's being partially sheltered from the profit motive) and yet they're being run by one of Harper's PMO lackeys.
