Rogers, along with Bell, Telus, Cogeco, Eastlink and the Canadian Cable Systems Alliance Inc., wrote to the CRTC accusing CTV of violating the Broadcasting Act with "one-sided and unbalanced coverage" of its advocacy campaign.On Saturday, the broadcaster is holding a "Save Local TV" campaign at stations across the country and plans live coverage on Newsnet as it meets with viewers to plead for government support.
Rogers vice chairman Phil Lind said that incorporating the campaign into CTV's local newscasts is "a blatant violation of respected journalistic principles."
