The coverage of the trucker protests by the CBC would be a prime example of this. The CBC was not a news organization during that event, it was a mouthpiece for the government's positions and talking points. People noticed this. The BBC has it's issues as well, but I wouldn't call them a mouthpiece for the government, certainly not the Torries.
