The news…
… reporting is good enough, isn’t it? I think so.
Quick & Informative
"Bite Sized" international news with professional reporters and mostly neutral coverage. Nice!
Great 10m overview
I like my news in a bit more depth and expertly digested for a week or three, but for brand new situations as they arise, as they affect Canadians, CBC World Report does a good enough job, and I’m unaware of anyone else who comes anywhere close to good enough. I only wish regional and local versions were available. A great podcast which I seldom miss.
