I agree with you tht there is more to this story and it needs to come out. Its just that times like this really show how terribly partisan question period is. I have really like Andrew Coynes thoughts on this scandles.
In fairness the media should be reporting Muclair's questions, he is the Leader of the Opposition.

I haven't been listening to Question Period, but I would think a short direct question to get Harper on the record and a media sound bite would essentially be one in the same.

I'm not disagreeing that a media bite and a pointent question can be different, nor am I disagreeing that Muclair could be asking better questions; only because I haven't been following.

Can you give examples of what Muclair is asking?
