Canada’s CBC says Twitter ‘not serious’ after ‘69% government-funded media’ label

Public broadcaster Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) on Tuesday pushed back against Twitter’s move to label it “69% government funded media,” saying it had complete editorial independence.

The Elon Musk-owned social media platform had on Sunday stamped CBC with a label that said it was government-funded media, after placing similar notices for U.S. broadcasters NPR and PBS.
