Apparently there was a Clash of sorts in the post debate media scrum between a heckler and Rebel News. It was a complete set up. The Globe and Mail is reporting that "It is absolutely appalling that a small contingent of rage-farming 'journalists' has managed to get the postdebate media scrums cancelled altogether. This means that actual journalists are being prevented from asking important questions on behalf of Canadians, and that Canadian voters are being deprived of those answers. What a debacle. Shameful."
The white guy with the stash on the left created a scene. He was boisterously bullying Rebel News but his tirade was directed at Drea Humphrey who was quietly minding her own business sitting beside former Rebel New reporter Keean Bexte, who broke off on his own and formed Counter Signal.
True North, now called Juno News with Candice Malcolm recorded the outburst and was sitting beside Ezra Levant who this time tried to diffuse the situation. The heckler was bullying and mocking Rebel News and was complaining about them taking too long to ask their questions. He lied and Erza calmly pointed out the claim he made was false.
So that's it. Basically it was a set up. A Heckler wanted to start a fight to get Rebel News banned. This is part of the problem we witness. It's two fold. First he bullying Rebel News, True North and Counter Signal claiming they aren't real journalists.
It's like a large media outlet bullying a smaller media outlet but it goes beyond that. It's very hypocritical because the large media outlets receive so much government funding the public has completely lost faith in them. That's one of the reasons the large outlets hate independent media so much.
Banning Independent media is clearly not the answer. Giving the heckeler a fine and suspension is. Don't ban him, fine him and give him a suspension. We need to stop banning everyone who disagrees with us. In this world every voice matters. In a Trump majority, CNN has an important voice finally.
Cancelling the post debate media scrum served Mark Carney who doesn't like to answer questions that aren't scripted so let's not get distracted from that. It's shocking to see the Globe and Mail go woke. This is why we need Independent Media.
After the episode David Menzies hounded another journalist or someone on Carney's team on his way home after the event and the journalist slapped the microphone out of his face.
David Menzies and Ezra Levant are drama queens. They like to start fights then play the victim to fund raise. In the other incident, David Menzies was the aggressor. If he wants to talk to you he will. If he wants to leave, let him. This confrontational approach is Ezra Levant's MO. Ezra started a fight at a Palestinian protest then called the police antisemitic for removing him from the fight. That was really cheap.
The moral of the story is don't start a fight then play the victim. The mainstream media has no credibility and they are jealous of Independent Media. Yet we need them now more than ever. Banning different opinions is not something we should endorse. The fake news has their place just like CNN does.
