Federal Conservative leader tells followers to ‘go around’ the media
After being heckled by a Global News journalist, Federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre penned an email claiming media “cannot be counted on to communicate” politicians’ messaging.
. I agree. I’m sorry for that. We all want politicians to answer questions — but there are better ways of making that point.Poilievre wrote in an email to followers that Akin “wasn’t interested in hearing what I had to say, and he certainly wasn’t interested in reporting it in an unbiased way.” “It’s the media, who are no longer interested in even pretending to be unbiased. They want us to lose.”“We can’t count on the media to communicate our messages to Canadians. We have to go around them and their biased coverage. We need to do it directly with ads, mail, phone calls and knocking on millions of doors. And to do all that we need your help.”
