so, this is comical.
but, keeping in mind that the toronto star is considered to be the closest thing that we have to english-language, liberal-leaning msm in this country, it demonstrates the power that this company has, here - and the factors underlying the situation.
the rest of the media is right-leaning and all over this. the toronto star is supposed to come to the pmo's aide; instead, it's throwing them under the bus to save the impugned reputation of the corporation in question.
as mentioned: they need to create a major distraction. firing gerald butts wasn't it.
