End the CBC Strike

From the CBC's site:

According to The Canadian Press, CBC viewership has dropped to between 308,000 and 515,000 from the roughly 800,000 who usually watch CBC TV's nightly news program The National, while both CTV News and Global National News have both reported related audience boosts.

What concerns me the most is they express no real concern in the article about the impact this is having on viewers and listeners, at least not yet. They also indicate, rather subtly, that management is prepared to stay in this stirke for the long haul, referring to potential impacts on Hockey Night in Canada (that's in October for those of you under a rock).

In related news, staff currently locked-out plan to start their own national broadcast (via the internet) this week. I will link to it once I find the site. If anyone knows it, email thedailynar@gmail.com .
