Canada's Fox News wannabe network shutting its doors

http://www.cbc.ca/m/news/topstories/sun-news-network-to-shut-down-permanently-sources-1.2955664

Sun News Network is about to sign off, permanently. CBC News has learned that the cable news television channel will shut down early tomorrow.

The network began broadcasting in 2011, launching a right-of-centre programming schedule. It has had a constant challenge attracting viewers.

Its supporters blamed the CRTC for not giving it the same access enjoyed by news channels operated by CBC and CTV.


Their tears of bitterness blaming a lack of socialism for their failure is extra sweet. Should be blaming their inability to pull hard enough on their own bootstraps...
