Andrew Clarke Marking Stories

“But whether the Citizen pulled its punches on the Lansdowne Live proposal or not, this is a story CBC Ottawa should have owned. It didn’t. Oh there are examples of good work done by individual reporters. But the issue never became a station priority. It rarely, if ever, broke new ground on the story.  It’s an example that offers another possible tagline for the new CBC News:  No longer in the business of owning stories, we’re now satisfied with simply marking them.”
