Default CRTC proposes easing ban on broadcasting false or misleading news

The CRTC is proposing a regulatory change that would give Canadian TV and radio stations more leeway to broadcast false or misleading news.

Current regulations contain a blanket prohibition on broadcasting “any false or misleading news.”

The Canadian Radio-Television Telecommunications Commission wants to considerably narrow the scope of that prohibition.
This is ridiculous. They want the news to be able to tell false and misleading news, how the hell can this be a good thing.

Lately the CRTC is just getting worse and worse.
