Media Election Coverage.....
Well, now that we are a week in to the election, i've been wondering where people are getting their election coverage/info.
Online is a no brainer..........CBC has the only local news site of the Canadian networks. My only beef here is lack of local updates on the weekend. Most times you are lucky to find New Brunswick mentioned on CTV unless we have some major news, or it's an extremely SLLLLOOOOWWWW news day. Global's site is simply horrible.
Radio, I still give the edge to CBC, at least as far as the information morning programs are concerned on my morning drive. Rogers has done ok as well with coverage through the day. The other Private stations have their ususal 10 second blurbs.
TV. I have to admit to having seen very little coverage of TV news lately from any network. I've asked around, and most seem to prefer CBC, then Global local news, and CTV pulling up the rear. If it didn't happen in Halifax or Dartmouth, it's just a quicky from CTV.
So who has the best election coverage so far according to you??
