CBC radio and CBC sports are probably the only two of their outlets that garner any loyalty. <br />I used to work at the head office in Toronto and even while I was there I found myself often disgusted at how much taxpayers’ money was being wasted. Even in my small department the bloated spending on pet projects and useless employees (who couldn't be fired because of the union) leeched a lot of money with nothing to show for it. The idea is that a cut to funding will result in the loss of programs we enjoy, when in reality if the company just functioned a bit more like private enterprise and trimmed the fat within its walls there wouldn't be an affect on output. Unfortunately that’s not the approach the mothercorp typically takes when budget becomes an issue so we can only expect quality to slump even lower.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
