Fake Sun TV citizenship ceremony explanations in dispute (Sun=Canada's wannabe Fox News)
(Canadian Press) Senior government officials insisted the Sun News Network was actively involved in the decision to have bureaucrats take the place of actual new Canadians during a televised citizenship ceremony last fall, newly released documents show.
That stands in contrast to statements made by Immigration Minister Jason Kenney's staff, who repeatedly said the network "did not know" the participants were merely stand-ins. The network had said its viewers were "deceived" by a bureaucrat.
Six bureaucrats, three of them wearing departmental t-shirts, reaffirmed their oath of citizenship alongside three or four bona fide new Canadians during a televised ceremony last October.
The Sun TV hosts referred to the group throughout the broadcast as new citizens, even as the judge himself specified they were only reaffirming their citizenship.

The third-most popular comment: "Sun TV are trying to out do Fox 'News'. Spreading the right wing propaganda thickly across the airwaves."
