Twitter labels CBC as ‘Government-funded Media’ after request by Pierre Poilievre
One of CBC’s Twitter accounts now has a label which describes the broadcaster as “Government-funded Media.”
Poilievre, in his tweet, also posted a link to a petition on the Conservative’s website that calls for the CBC to be defunded. After such a label was applied to the BBC, the broadcaster pushed back and Twitter eventually changed the tag to “publicly funded media.”
