Well, yes, the early indications are heartening.
Mr. Sinister thinks we're a couple of unscripted questions away from a meltdown.

Torontoist catches up with Craigslist troll catchers
... or does it?
Link here.
Story's got legs, but whether it passes the smell test is another matter. Harpobots are too obsessed with message control to leave something like this sloshing around on the floor.

CBC gets it wrong on Elizabeth May and leaders' debates
We're going to hear a lot more obfuscation and misdirection before the controversy over leaders' debates settles down, but The Corp's performance this morning didn't help.
On Metro Morning, Matt Galloway was asking, in essence, if so many people want to see Elizabeth May included in the debates, why don't more of them vote for her?
I had to give my head a shake.
Um, Matt? Wanting to see someone included doesn't have to imply partisan support. It could just as easily be a matter of principle.
Carry on.

Elizabeth May, the 'consortium' and our democratic dysfunctions
Too many bytes, too much ink and attention devoted to the looming Iggy-Harpo smackdown. (Any time! Any place! Bring it on, mofo!) It may happen, it may not, and I'm still undecided about whether it's a good thing or not.
Lost in the drama, I think, is the discussion of how the door got slammed in Elizabeth May's face.
Iggy and Harper, one on one?
Elizabeth May excluded? What Coyne said
Seriously? What century is this? Can you say "arbitrary?"
Welcome to OB's inaugural edition of What Andrew Coyne said. Dude's been making good use of the Tweeter on this one.

Whoever shouts the loudest
It doesn't have to be the truth. It just has to be repeated over and over and over, and drown out everyone and anyone else.
The Big Lie. Now where have we seen that before?
