Jian Ghomeshi section[edit]

In my view, the long, rambling section on Jian Ghomeshi who was later acquitted of all charges despite Brown's continued insistence of his guilt, should be removed entirely. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mpiff (talk • contribs) 00:29, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Jesse Brown's title[edit]

Either 'talk show host', 'media personality', or 'businessperson' fits his current work, but not 'journalist'. Jesse Brown was never employed or educated as a journalist. He assisted with two articles that a court later ruled were factually wrong when Jian Ghomeshi was acquitted of all charges, that's not a career.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Mpiff (talk • contribs) 2018-03-12T12:42:11 (UTC)

Keep. The article title with "journalist" is fine from my perspective, as he graduated from McGill University with a BA, and founded Canadaland which is a member of the National NewsMedia Council. A podcast host is not the same as a "talk show host", so this not an appropriate title. +mt 00:52, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Canadaland is more than Jesse Brown[edit]

Searching for Canadaland on WP results in a redirect to Jesse Brown. IMO, it should not.

Canadaland produces a number of podcasts and its website has editorial content covering numerous news stories. Brown is the founder but the reader/listener supported website employs other journalists, full time and part time.

IMO, Canadaland should have its own page and the section about it on Brown's page should be moved.

I've gone ahead and written a draft article for Canadaland. Stay tuned— Preceding unsigned comment added by ZEQFS (talk • contribs) 2018-06-27 —Preceding undated comment added 01:15, 28 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
