Hello, Line podcast listeners! A quiet week in the news, but still looks to talk about. How the media handled COVID, how the PM handles protesters, how all of us handle the genuine tension between the rights of different minority groups in our society, and — in a very brief segment — how the media is handling Big Tech being mad about C-18.
Would it surprise you to learn that in every case, we are handling those things badly?
Written dispatch to come out on Sunday, folks. Enjoy your weekends!
