TUCKER: The other day, for example, somebody hacked the data base of the crowd funding website Give-Fund-Go and then revealed the names of people who donated to the truckers protesting in Ottawa. You've got to ask yourself, who would have the tech savvy and the political motive to do something like that? Well, state intelligence agencies would. In fact, we can't really think of anybody else. 

It would certainly be interesting to find out who did it -- it's a big part of the story. But media companies seem curiously uninterested in finding out who did it. Instead they immediately started using this stolen information to intimidate the donors. Anyone who dared to send money to Justin Trudeau's political opponents was unmasked in public, shamed, and, of course, inevitably threatened, because that's what happens.

Trudeau's state TV channel, the CBC, has been working on this retribution project all day long. They knew who their enemies are and they knew who their master is -- it's Justin Trudeau. But Canada's National Post newspaper is doing the same thing. The National Post is supposedly independent of the government, but they're still doing it. In this country, Vice Media -- to it's great and eternal shame -- has been doing the same thing.

So what do all of these media companies have in common? Well, they're all squarely on the side of entrenched power against the population they supposedly serve.
