Re: A simple message I send to CTV this morning RE:Bell

Once again, I remind you that Bell is NOT the parent company of CTV. Bell is a minority shareholder of CTVGlobeMedia. They own 15% of the company, and are the FOURTH largest shareholder, not the first largest.

How can it be "once again" that you remind me, since this is the first time you say it? Ok so BCE owns only 15%, none the less, one has to question whether the link between the two is the reason why they are not covering this news. Maybe I should send in an appology e-mail? I truely do not understand the need in your post for yelling "NOT" and "FOURTH".

My hope, just in case you missed it, was to poke them a little bit, since CTV probably has more of the viewer shares than CBC, so as to get them to publicise this problem even more.

Cheers and I hope that you're having a better day today.

I don't mean you as in Muzzy, I mean you as in "you all". People keep bringing this up over and over again, saying that Bell owns CTV. They don't. They're a minority shareholder. They might have a say, but they're not in control.

I used emphasis only because this same issue comes up repeatedly, and people are misrepresenting the situation.

Besides, I'd like to think that Lloyd has a bit more journalistic integrity than that.
