So now, the Hockey Song is going to be played on CTV, TSN, RDS and a few other channels. Meanwhile CBC is having a contest to see who can write the new song for Hockey Night in Canada… the one show that they actually still make money off of… if you listen carefully, you can hear the majority of CBC execs all slapping their foreheads at the same time.
How would it be for their own good? Hockey Night in Canada is their number one ranking show… pretty much the only show they make money off of, and the theme is the identity of the show. It has been for decades. They just sold their identity to their competitors. I don’t think it was for any good as far as the CBC goes.
