Default CBC

CBC is our government created and subsidized broadcasting corporation.

Depending on which side you are on, it either represents the best and brightest programming which couldn't exist in the private, profit drive sector...or...provides off beat, politicaly motivated, subsidised nonsense.

Examples:

A NASA scientist, being interviewed, is asked by the neutral CBC employee "So, your rocket-things cause global warming, cost many billions of dollars that could be spent on feeding the underpriviledged, and don't return much, how do you respond?"

An honourable homeless person, who makes music by thwacking garbage can lids attached to a stolen (underground) synthesizer, is asked (with reverence): "So, where did you get your inspiration, you talented thing?"
