Scott Dagostino posits – in Xtra (2008.10.09), the Toronto homosexualist fortnightly owned by the “nonprofit†that owns the other Toronto homosexualist fortnightly, part of OutTV, a phone-sex line, and various “dating†sites – that CBC employees are scared shitless by Harper and the Tories. The only sources who will cop to such fear are quoted anonymously, conjuring memories of anonymous cowards in our comment threads.
There is one source quoted by name: Denis “Not Dennis†“Neck Fat†McGrath. Oh, and Jeff Keay.
But if Harper wins a majority, can we expect the CBC to swing to the right to preserve its federal funding? “That would be a mug’s game to speculate on that,†says Keay. Any CBC bias, he insists – left-wing or otherwise – “is toward credible, responsible public-service journalism.â€
Obviously there were no external critics of the CBC who are actually out and who could have provided a comment. But is this supposed to mean Denis McGrath is gay? I know several fatties who’d be all hot for him ‘n’ shit. Well, if he had facial hair.

I have since been un-confused by mutual acquaintances, so my apologies for my outburst above. Better I leave it up as a reminder to myself that I won’t always know or understand the context of a post at first.
Kev: it wasn’t the commentary on appearance, but that what I thought was going on was, in fact, more internecene in nature than I first believed.
Wait – Joe, are you mad because they didn’t ask you?
This new angle on media criticism, I’d imagine. Who knew it’d hinge on personal appearance.
Mr. Williams seemed confused. By what, I wonder.
What the SwearWord…?
I’ve fucked CBCers that are way hotter than McGrath ever could be.
Mmmm… large uncut reporter cock…
