Default CBC Takes a Hit

The CBC announced its new schedule today. For those who like the arts,
humanities, and sciences it is a disaster. No classical music, no
opera, no lectures by people who know their subject, no plays.
Instead, they are changing their programming to appeal to the
"younger generation."



Well, that bloody bites. There are two anglophone CBC stations:
Radio One and Two-FM (or whatever it's called now).

Radio One has always been the news/talk full-service station, while
Two-FM has always been a music & fine arts station. The Francophone
counterpart used to be called the "Chaine Culturelle" (Cultural
Network).

I always thought it was the ideal use of the two stations. So you're
saying they dumped the music from the music station????
