Lloyd Robertson, giant
Of the many nice things said about Lloyd Robertson in recent days, a longtime Conservative strategist had the very best take on the legendary TV news anchor: "I don't know how he voted." And it was true. Robertson, who passed away this week at the age of 92, was a true journalist from the old school: he was without bias. He presented the news for 41 years, on radio and then TV, on CBC and then CTV. And, in all of that time, he was scrupulously, rigorously fair. He was also ve

Eve Barlow: The Hidden Hand "essential"
Here: “Cyabra, CyberWell, and ISD all reported that online antisemitism proliferated after October 7, in what looked like a highly coordinated way.

TRUMP ANNOUNCES GAZA BREAKTHROUGH - that was CNN. TRUMP CLAIMS HAMAS HAS AGREED TO DISARMAMENT DEAL IN GAZA - that one, the New York Times. TRUMP SAYS HAMAS AGREED TO NEXT PHASE OF GAZA PEACE DEAL - CBS News. TRUMP ANNOUNCES HAMAS DISARMAMENT DEAL - NBC News. So went Friday’s front pages, or the tops of major news websites. The best reaction, however, came on formerly pro-Trump news platforms in Israel: nothing. TV7 Israel News, I24 News, Israel Hayom: no triumphant proclamat

Toronto, 2026 = Berlin, 1938?
