Now let's consider Global, helmed by Izzy Asper. What little original content is produced for its TV networks is low-grade news or a CanCon series, produced if and only if the richly profitable CanWest Global can secure public funding. The Internet is all about originality . In both cases, delusional moguls errantly assume the existence of some kind of transferable skills and knowledge . Think of deadlines.
Substantive errors are uncommon in the print medium and are rather low-profile.
That's what a lack of deadline will do to you. Information does not want to be free, but airtime wants to be filled, even if lacking factual basis. Without enough vetting, without enough sober second thought, without enough pairs of experienced eyes and ears stopping to think , you make mistakes. These errors may be as rare as in the print medium, but they are far higher in profile, and everyone knows that television newscasts crib from each other promiscuously , spreading incorrect memes as fast as a newsreader can enunciate them. Now imagine an electronic media conglomerate with mainly a television background.
