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.

French journo abducted in Somalia

by Bill Doskoch on Sun 16 Dec 2007 04:53 PM EST | Permanent Link | Cosmos

From the BBC:

A French journalist has been abducted in northern Somalia by unidentified gunmen, sources say.

"He was abducted this morning at around 1100 (0800 GMT). The journalist arrived in Bosasso yesterday," a humanitarian worker told AFP news agency on Sunday.
French media named the victim as Gwen Le Gouil, a cameraman. It is not clear for which organisation he was working.
He was apparently in the semi-autonomous Puntland region for a story on human trafficking.
