who employs me

I am a staff writer with CTV.ca News. That operation is part of CTV News, which is of course nestled into CTV Inc. and CTVglobemedia.

I don't speak for my employer on this blog. I don't comment about the internal affairs of my employer.

Any views expressed here are my own.

The reason I am running with this, is that the source is very well-placed. Furthermore, the rumour has the fundamental ring of truth about it.
