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.

View Article  Kind words for Stevie Cameron

In the Dec. 5 issue of Frank, of all places:

... A funny thing happened on the way to rewriting Muldoon's past; it's impossible to do so without acknowledging Cameron, and what cannot be altered is that Globe and CBC reporters -- justifiably revelling in their great moment -- owe her a large debt. (Greg McArthur, the Globe's lead reporter on the Muldoon-Schreiber investigation, was eight years old when Cameron first started tracking this story in 1988). The revelations contained in Schreiber's affidavit, which triggered Prime Minister harper's decision to torch Muldoon, were first published by Cameron years ago.

Frank quoted from two Nov. 8 blog posts by Cameron: "Cash came in like it was falling from the sky" and "Stepping down to private life."

Some others:

Nov. 13 - "Turns out it was all my fault"

Nov. 11 - "How they spent the money"

You can find Cameron's book output listed here, but the two big ones on the Mulroney years are On The Take and The Last Amigo: Karlheinz Schreiber and the Anatomy of a Scandal (co-authored with CBC journalist Harvey Cashore).
