so did i.

it says an unnamed business man presented them with a copy of a confidentiality agreement he didn't feel he was bound by, that they couldn't publish the details of, that has neither been acknowledged or refuted. the business man heavily implies that the prime minister had a sexual relationship with a child, the entire article is based on this accusation and the unprintable confidentiality agreement they were shown.

idk, forward it to rebel and see if they can rake up some muck

like, the story is that this unnamed businessman discovered via emails that their child was having a "torrid" affair with the man who is now prime minister, but they cannot provide any evidence of this because it would violate a financial settlement that they aren't even party to. never mind that would be a criminal matter and to the best of my knowledge you can't enforce a contract to cover up the commission of a crime

perhaps the reason no one has picked up this story in the three years since it was published is that the trudeau family has been exerting power and influence over every media outlet in the nation, to keep it suppressed, or, possibly no one else including the rabidly anti-trudeau rags like rebel can find anything to make hay out of.

Trudeau is just a dorky entitled theatre nerd who sucks at his job.

Trying to reveal a grand conspiracy greater than that is loving stupid and takes away from the valid criticism about him sucking at his job.

Also linking that article is a fine sign you failed media literacy.

Not a reliable source.

https://www.canadaland.com/the-buffalo-chronicle-is-not-reliable/?fbclid=IwAR3xBMY-EXcBri4Mj8I4aWIkqTF8AjEWz6-XGDd5J2zWn-fLrizmpJqCaWE

quote:

I reached the owner of the site, Matthew Ricchiazzi, to ask for details of their reporting, but didn’t receive much. Ricchiazzi says he agreed to keep his writers’ names secret — he says he has two contributors in Canada — and that, while he hasn’t independently verified much of their reporting, he is very confident it is all accurate.

Ricchiazzi is a failed municipal candidate in Buffalo — he couldn’t get enough valid signatures to run for mayor in 2009, and was later rejected as a school board candidate. And he’s gotten in trouble for his work on The Buffalo Chronicle before.

In 2012, Ricchiazzi had a hand in spreading a homophobic mailout targeting a Republican state senator who voted in support of gay marriage. Last January, a Rochester-based company had to issue a statement specifically calling out a story on the Chronicle’s website as false. The website lists the outlet’s corporate name as “The Buffalo Chronicle Media Group,” and yet I haven’t been able to find any corporation registered under that name in New York State.

Many of the names listed on the Chronicle’s website as staff members either haven’t written for the site in years, or deny knowing anything about the operation. The Chronicle’s website has reported that a former municipal Green Party candidate, Terrence Robinson, was its managing editor. Elsewhere, it lists him as its city hall reporter. When reached by phone, Robinson didn’t even know the Chronicle had a website — he thought it was a Facebook page.

“I don’t know anything about it,” Robinson told me. He laughed when I told him that the page lists his email address and phone number. “Oh my god,” he said, adding: “It’s some cover.”

Today, Ricchiazzi lists himself as a consultant with Enkindle Strategies — a company which has no web history to speak of, and does not appear to exist apart from its mention on Ricchiazzi’s LinkedIn page.

On Sunday, I decided to start working up a story on the Chronicle. I pitched a column about the weird saga to the The Globe and Mail (which ultimately passed) and reached out to Ricchiazzi for comment. I wanted to know the names of his so-called reporters, whether he could even try to back up some of the outlandish claims he published, and whether he had been paying the Canadian Press for their photos and stories.

Ricchiazzi replied that he would “under no circumstances” respond to a request for comment from any publication that would “allow for the State-sponsorship of its journalism or journalists” and refused comment on my questions. Ricchiazzi then threatened legal action if I published anything suggesting he refused comment.

On Monday morning, Ricchiazzi published a story — written in the same tone and voice as the previous articles — claiming I was a Liberal operative and suggesting I had attempted “political intimidation and extortion.”

The publication’s bizarre reaction aside, it wasn’t exactly difficult to figure out that the Chronicle was an unreliable outlet. All the details I’ve recounted here are relatively easy to find out with a basic amount of Googling. The politicians and social media denizens who amplified the nonsense reporting did none of this. Because the stories suited the political bent of those happily clicking “share,” the conspiracy theories were unleashed.

lmfao the Buffalo Chronicle has less journalistic integrity than the Epoch Times. I think one (former) buddy shared some vaccine poo poo from there on Facebook and got roundly ridiculed for it.
