Not to be confused with CBC Television's early-90's experiment of running The National and The Journal back-to-back at 9 p.m., although The Journal was a documentary program.
Being such an iconic format, it has naturally been subjected several times to Parody and Satire. The most notable of these are:
- Brass Eye
- Frontline
