This should raise some serious red flags about how we get our information from the news.

Why? False news is not permitted in Canada.

Clue for you: It's not about the worthiness of the news; it's about how the MSM is a regurgitation of the same news, right down to the awkward phrasing.Why? False news is not permitted in Canada.
Glad to help.

That's freaking crazy. Anything to save a buck!

9/11 sucked, so then what about this?: "Did you know that today 27,000 children will die of preventable diseases such as diarrhea, measles, and malnutrition? That's the same as if an airplane full of children crashed every 16 minutes, killing everyone onboard." - Aug. 2005 edition of 'Warcry', official magazine of the Salvation Army

Bigger clue for you....it's not about news at all. But whatever it is, it can't be "false" in Canada or there will be hell to pay!

Titanic clue for you: it's more fun to make it seem that way....Canada likes attention from "the states"....even bad attention! So make some noise:
