First, the producer laughed and said that isn't going to happen anytime soon. He then proceeded to tell me that Mr. Chris Morley of Premier McGuinty's office called him today because they were angry that CHTV ran the story.

I was told that the message from the Premier's office that they would not be getting any more interviews from the government. I said, "You mean they are boycotting you." It appears like it, was the reply. I then asked, "Did they use the word boycot?"

"No, but my impression from what he said is that is what they meant", the producer told me. I told him I wanted to run this story and asked him to say what his impression was. After searching for the correct words the producer then said, "well I told you my impression why don't you call Chris Morley and see what he said."

The producer gave me Mr. Morley's number, which I called, and Mr. Morley confirmed that he did call the producer early today and expressed that they were not pleased that the story was aired. I asked him, "Indian Affairs had already done a Press Release saying the Governmnet was not pleased so why call him." He repeated his answer.

I then told Mr. Morley what the producer had told me about his impression that CHTV was being punished for airing the story and I wanted to give him a chance to clear up any misunderstanding before running my story. "No comment" were his words. I reworded my question and he replied his "No comment" statement and said this conversation is over.

The CHTV producer has been emailed this story.

Not only is McGuinty trying to control information that goes to the media, every political party does that, but he is willing to punish media who run stories that make the Liberals look bad.

Let's sit back and see the outrage of our Media and see whether the Liberals will get the same nation wide coverage for their punishment of CHTV as they gave the Conservatives for trying to control the order of questions.
