Interesting...
Go here to check out a reporter who connected the dots between . . . Dion's interview with CTV last October in the last week of the election campaign,. . . the airing and criticism of the whole interview by Mike Duffy, . . . the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council's ruling on the two pieces, and . . . Duffy's appointment to the Senate as a Conservative.
Sighs.
I remember back in October being bummed about the fact that Dion wasn't given a fair shake for, to me, really superficial reasons. Like the fact that he's very well lettered, experienced and respected academic and politician. Heaven forbid we have someone intelligent in the PMO! Sure, folks may not have agreed with his politics or ideas - fine - but that's different than these kind of barbs.
I had heard of the CBSC's ruling a few weeks ago and noticed that is was underplayed. CTV should have at least hung their heads in shame.
