In the CBC story, Mallick wrote that John McCain’s running mate “added nothing to the ticket that the Republicans didn’t already have sewn up, the white trash vote.”
She proceeded to write that the Alaska governor “has a toned-down version of the porn actress look favored by this decade’s woman, the overtreated hair, puffy lips and permanently alarmed expression.”
She also questioned why the Palins were allowing Levi Johnston — 17-year-old Bristol Palin’s boyfriend and father of her unborn baby — into the family.
“What normal father would want Levi ‘I’m a f—-n’ redneck’ Johnson prodding his daughter?” Mallick asked.
The CBC ombudsman doesn’t seem to understand the difference between a state run new agency, The CANADIAN Broadcasting Network, to a private news organization, FOX news.
CBC Ombudsman Vince Carlin told FOXNews.com that he has gotten “quite a few complaints about [the column], both from Canada and the U.S,” and said he’s reviewing its contents to see if it meets CBC’s journalistic standards and practices.
Asked if Mallick’s column represented the views of CBC or the Canadian government, which owns CBC, Carlin suggested it did not and questioned whether commentators on FOX News represent the views of all Americans.
“I don’t think so,” he answered.
As for Mallick, he said, “She’s a columnist not a journalist.”
Yea, that puts everything into perspective.
