I'm not sure how much Bell was doing with actual local news, but I've long argued the one of the biggest strengths of the CNC is in fact local news, and I would support funding that as a taxpayer.

But I sure as hell don't support sending tax dollars to help Bell when they increased their dividend and just rip off Canadians all the time.
