The CBC's predecessor, the Canadian Radio Broadcasting Commission, was established in 1932 by the government of R.B.

Defenders of the CBC mocked O'Reilly with his claim that the CBC was using their "monopoly" of Canadian broadcasting to smear him when in fact the CBC is one of at least three major domestic television networks in Canada and often not the highest rated one.
