You also didn't hear from anyone who wasn't offended by it, so 15 minutes of how insensitive and dangerous it is to joke about this particular minority. That's not balanced or nuanced man. There's also claims that a pregnant woman lost her job for starting a walkout when it was revealed that people who lost their jobs at Netflix lost them because they broke their contracts by publicizing internal data. No mention of that in the piece.
I'm all for acceptance and I'm honestly not bothered by what makes people different but when CBC's not telling the whole story then credibility is lost.
I do think they missed an opportunity to interview 1 or 2 Canadian comedians who could maybe shed some light on the world of comedy too.
