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.

If you ever find yourself passing through Cheticamp, N.S., remember that number. Tune your car's radio to that particular FM station, for it is there that you can pick up CKJM, the local community radio station.

From that page, you can access the live stream. They basically had Cajun-style music on Tuesday afternoon, but the tunes were all good!

I'm listening to a 5 p.m. newscast on CBC Radio 2 on Monday afternoon.

The lead story is about Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's address to the United Nations. The announcer intones that here are the Iranian president's words, as offered through a translator:

"We have 80,000 workers in Canada (blah, blah, blah) ..."

And that left me immediately asking myself the following question: Why is Buzz Hargrove translating for Ahmadinejad?

He wasn't. The announcer apologized for the error. The clip from the Canadian Auto Workers president came later as part of an item on the just-launched GM strike in the U.S.
