Is the CBC's purpose to find the truth or to hide the truth?

There are times when I read stories covered by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) and I can't help but think that CBC reporters are either lazy, stupid, or are deliberately out to hide the real story instead of truly reporting on it.

Take this story. What really happened here? Did this police officer really sexually assault a woman, or not? Why were the charges dropped? Why is it that the police officer - who hasn't been found guilty of anything - gets his name published and therefore his reputation smeared, while his accuser remains anonymous? How is it "in the accuser's best interests" to drop the charges? Was she lying? Is it a case of mistaken identity?

The crown has decided it's "not in the public's best interests" to continue. What the hell does that mean?

Whoever the internal censor is in the CBC, they are doing a hell of a good job.
