cancelled[edit]

cancelled! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.55.58.212 (talkcontribs) .

It was still on as of last night, is still listed on CBC's website as airing tonight (a full week after you posted this unsourced claim), and neither CBC's website nor Google News is pulling up any indication of a media report announcing a cancellation. So unless you can provide a media reference to confirm that an actual cancellation announcement somehow slipped under the radar, nope. Bearcat 03:13, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I asked at their talkpage, but they didn't reply. --Quiddity 04:25, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It isn't cancelled, but moved to only Saturday night at 12am to 4am. You can check on http://www.cbc.ca/programguide/program/programSchedule.jsp?program=BraveNewWaves - TwistedCritique
Except it's currently Wednesday, and I'm listening to it as I type this. And how is that scheduling going to affect the CBC Radio 3 simulcast? Bearcat 04:27, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I e-mailed CBC Audience Relations to ask about this; the woman who responded advised me that as far as she knew, the program isn't moving and the website just made some kind of mistake — in the schedule that they have access to, BNW is still in the old time slot. She noted that she would contact the web department, however, so with any luck there'll be some kind of clarification soon either way. Bearcat 08:28, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

HELLO. I'VE EDITED THE PAGE AGAIN. INFO IS WRONG! AND LIST OF GUEST HOSTS IS IRRELEVANT. (THERE HAVE BEEN DOZENS AND DOZENS OF GUESTS OVER THE YEARS.) PROGRAM IS CANCELLED. HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RADIO 3 OR SATELLITE. WILL BE REPLACED IN MARCH 2007. NO PODCAST. NO SATELLITE. I HAVE THIS FROM A COMPLETELY RELIABLE SOURCE. JAN 22.07. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by P5000 (talkcontribs).

Could you identify the source, or provide an alternative source we can use as a reference? (And please don't write in all-caps.) Thanks :) --Quiddity 21:11, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


(sorry about the all caps). my source is that i am associated with the program. and since this has become a referring page - correct and properly neutral info would seem appropriate. more details will be confirmed as cbc rolls out new schedule. p5000

I miss this show...:( makes me sad still that its gone--Agnaramasi (talk) 06:12, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of content[edit]

For some reason, the simple, straightforward fact that after May 2006 the program no longer aired live for four hours a night, but instead aired a mixture of new and repeated content for the remainder of its run (and that Patti Schmidt herself was only heard in the repeat portion, and never hosted any of the "new" stuff), keeps getting removed from the article. It's quite unclear why, as the statement is properly sourced and absolutely true and in no way controversial or problematic — and, in fact, the very same anonymous IP that keeps removing the content previously attempted to add external links to blog posts which also described the show's post-May 2006 iteration as a guest-hosted mixture of new and repeated content.

So that description of the show's final year on the air was clearly accurate enough to be linked to in weak sources by the very same user who disputes it now, yet our article can't say the very same thing while citing a more reliable source for it? And we'll never mind that the very same user was the first person to specifically add anything to the article about the significance of May 27, 2006 being the last fully-new episode of the show in the first place, yet repeatedly resists any attempt to provide any further detail on the form the show actually took after that date?

Would somebody care to explain what the actual issue is here? Bearcat (talk) 19:04, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
