It would be proof that the press is at the boot of power, because bought by those who govern them. A short disconcertualized video from a Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, fury in the compotional spheres in early February 2022.

We see the Canadian leader, smile, welcome himself to be spared by the media, especially those on the left:

“In recent times, we sometimes hear about progressive bias in the media, in the way they have to leave our government alone, to spare us without reason. Frankly, I think it’s insulting. C ‘ Is clear that they save us for a very good reason, because they pay them $ 600 million “.

The short pass of twenty seconds ends on a fixed plan showing Justin Trudeau Ravi. “The mainstream media? I bought them”, can we read it in English. The video has been seen over 200,000 times.

On Twitter, the quotation has been approximately cleared, and accompanied by scandalized comments: “Justin Trudeau’s hallucinating statement:” How could the journalists take us a shot in the back knowing that they have paid them $ 600 Millions! “”

Shared several thousand times, the tweet has been resumed by the very follow-up Idriss Aberkane. This essayist and speaker, already known for several years for inflating his resume, and become, in favor of Many counter-truths , one of the new coulics of the anti-stretching sphere, Pro-Raoult, hostile to anti-Covid-19 vaccines and porous the theories of the plot.

Why this video is misleading

Justin Trudeau has kept these comments well, but, says CBC , Canadian public chain, it was within the framework of a joke during the annual parliamentary gathering in May 2019. Gold, the Video is cut just before the fall of the joke.

In this case, Justin Trudeau’s speech continues with newspaper titles, which appear on the screen. But these are not favorable to him, on the contrary: “Justin Trudeau falsifies the Canadian brand” for the Toronto Star ; “Justin Trudeau and the degree zero of reflection”, for the political scrubber and chronicler of the Loïc Loïc Log ; “Trudeau lost the moral authority [necessary] to govern”, according to the Globe and Mail. The Canadian Prime Minister Ironizes then:” We do not obtain titles as admirable without grease the paw. “

The fall of the joke can be found in the original capture, from the thirty-ninth minute of this video:

In short, Justin Trudeau Ironized on the cliché that public subsidies in the press would control it. And in an autodérision exercise, he raised the critics of which he had been the subject of the media. The opposite of what is trying to believe the truncated version circulating on Twitter.
