France vs Israel

Finally after a week of headline news on the Israeli elections, and two weeks before that coverage of the Israeli PM's visit to the USA, there was nothing in CBC.ca about Israel today.

However there was finally one article about the elections in France, where there has been a serious new development in the rise of far-right wing parties.

Is it not reasonable to compare the overblown, extensive news coverage at CBC.ca of the elections in tiny little Israel, with the almost negligible coverage of the French elections?

Does CBC not realise that one-quarter of Canada's population is French and only one percent is Jewish? But perhaps if one looks at English CBC, he will find the reverse; that the Jewish staff outnumbers French ones by 25 to 1.
