We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

MediaCow has certainly been prolific since its launch, but typically only half right about most things. It lashes a "tired" Herald column in which Barbara Sumner Burstyn lists the sins of CanWest in relation to its Canadian newspapers, rightly pointing out that there is no evidence the company's policies have endangered editorial freedom at TV3, as Sumner Burstyn implies.
