Yes, twitter really did mockingly label the Canadian national broadcaster CBC as "69% Government-funded Media".
Similar broadcasters like the BBC and Australia's ABC surely have to follow CBC and stop using twitter, now that its toxic clown of an owner has shown what contempt he has for them.
If he is prepared to use his platform to paint childish graffiti on their accounts, I can't see why any serious entity would want to have anything to do with twitter.

CBC is pausing their Twitter use. Now would be a good time to email their PR team or your local shows and suggest they try Mastodon.
The CBC PR team can be emailed at cbcpr@cbc.ca.
Had to listen to the Getting Past Polarization episode of #CBCIdeas podcast episode with Anand Giridharadas twice to catch some of his great insights - cbc.ca/radio/ideas/divisive-am…
How do we persuade folks better?
Although Jesse Brown from the Canadian news / podcast company #CanadaLand has said he has no plans to come to #Mastodon I still think it is worth while to give them a plug here.
I have donated to this podcast, from almost the beginning. I initially started because I really enjoyed his #CBC radio show (which was unfortunately cancelled)
Show Jesse that Mastodon is worth joining by subscribing & donating:
