New reviews and findings

-Friday, Feb 4, 2011 No Comments

A few notes about new activities:

Today I've released findings on a complaint about the booking of a prominent guest on a topic about which her credentials were less well-known. The complaint raises an interesting question: Should someone be precluded from discussing one issue when she is a prominent advocate about another issue?

I've agreed to review a complaint that an objectionable term was spoken on a CBC program. More specifically, the review will look at how CBC dealt with the complaint when it was raised.

I've agreed to review a complaint about the qualities of a radio documentary on wind power.

And I've agreed to review a complaint about the qualities of a television documentary on the Palestinian village of Budrus.
