Can't say I'm surprised
Not that this report from the Fraser Institute is 100% infallible, but it does help show with actual numbers what most centrists or conservatives already knew, that the CBC has an anti-American bias. The report covers the period after the September 11th attack and prior to the US war with Iraq.
I would love to see a similar report done comparing CBC coverage of last years American Presidential campaign. I don't really watch CBC all that much anymore, mostly because of their blatant pro-liberal slant to almost everything they do, but their were times last year that they didn't even pretend to be an unbiased news source. Just before the actual election they were running anti-bush documentaries repeatedly. Now that type of thing is a bit iffy for a privately owned media company, but is downright wrong for a publicly owned crown corporation.
