Since my last post I've released three reviews and agreed to review a new complaint.
One review involved a complaint about CBC Radio coverage of Israeli attacks last May on a flotilla bound for Gaza. I did not find any violation of CBC Journalistic Standards and Practices.
A second review involved a complaint about CBC Radio coverage of the conviction of former Israeli president Moshe Katsav. I did not find any violation of CBC Journalistic Standards and Practices.
A third review involved a complaint about a CBC Television documentary on the Bush Administration and the Iraq invasion. I did not find any violation of CBC Journalistic Standards and Practices.I have agreed to review a complaint that CBC exaggerated its claim about journalistic exclusivity in its programming.
There are about a dozen files under review. All reviews are posted one day after they are released to the relevant complainants and programmers.
