The Speaker: I would say that on this occasion it does seem that the hon. member’s comments have raised to the level of a point of order, and he can apologize and withdraw.

Member Arcand-Paul: I apologize. The minister is unsure of his files. I apologize and withdraw.

The Speaker: I consider this matter dealt with and . . .

Mr. Williams: What?

The Speaker: Pardon me? I don’t need help from the hon. Minister of Mental Health and Addiction. If you had examples of every member on this side of the Assembly apologizing without reservation, then perhaps you would have an argument. In this case, the member provided some unnecessary comment –I will give you that – and then apologized and withdrew. If members apologize perfectly every time, then perhaps I would be less inclined to comment. That’s not what happens in this Chamber, as you well know.

In some discussions of misinformation, this assumption is fairly reasonable because the term “misinformation” is exclusively used to refer to clear-cut fabrications or fake news—that is, cases where media outlets simply make things up wholesale. As noted above and as many have pointed out, however, misinformation in this sense appears to be an extremely marginal feature of the media ecosystem. In response to this, there is a growing tendency to use the term “misinformation” to focus on content that might not be strictly speaking false but is nevertheless misleading. If the arguments in this essay are right about the nature of media bias and the challenges in identifying it, we should be extremely sceptical that this much more expansive and amorphous concept can ever form part of an objective science. As Alexander puts it, “Nobody will ever be able to provide 100% of relevant context for any story. It’s an editorial decision which caveats to include and how many possible objections to address. But that means there isn’t a bright-line distinction between “misinformation” (stories that don’t include enough context) and “good information” (stories that do include enough context). Censorship… will always involve a judgment call by a person in power enforcing their values.” Ultimately, there is no getting around this fact.
