Canada’s CBC network pauses its activities on Twitter after being labelled ‘govt-funded media’
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) has paused its Twitter activities after being labelled 'government-funded media' by the platform. Twitter added the label to the @CBC handle, though other network handles like CBC News and Radio-Canada were not similarly labelled. CBC received government funding of $1.24bn Canadian dollars ($926m) in 2021-22 and $1.39bn Canadian dollars ($1.03bn) in 2020-21. Twitter also labelled other media, including the BBC, NPR and Al Jazeera. | World News Key Points
