Bias on CBC and on NPR

William Watson, in a funny NatPost column, suggests social activists shoud pay for the CBC, as it is their house organ.

The U.S.'s NPR, though, is apparently just as biased. I downloaded a podcast from their religion programme to listen to on vacation. The subject was the new English mass, which will replace some of the Sixties wording with more accurate translations of the Latin.

NPR, properly, had two experts on to express their opinions. As every journalism grad knows, this is what ethical journalism requires: at least one spokesman for either side of a story.

The dispute, though, as NPR framed it, was purely between one faction of the Catholic Church that held the changes to be silly and unnecessary--expert 1--and another which found them an unacceptable capitulation to Rome--expert 2.

Funny ting that--NPR was apparently incapable of findıng a single Catholic spokesperson ın the US or abroad who accepted the authority of the Vatican.

What do you suppose the odds were of that?
