I’m devastated, but I’m also angry. I’m angry because this is an attack on press freedom.
If opportunities can be stripped from journalists simply because enough people repeat the same bad-faith narrative, how can anyone withstand the career impact of doing work that matters?

Are you fucking kidding me? How about protecting your reporters?
Absolute cowards

Bandwidth ? Lack of a spine is more like it. This is not only disrespectful to you, to journalism, but also demonstrates where their priorities are.
Would you happen to know who are their major advertisers for the morning show ? They should be boycotted as well

Someone should look into the Kramp family in Hastings county... Conservative dynasty just full of corruption.
Expropriated Two Loons restaurant for millions for no reason while in power.
A guy died leaving the restaurant drunk - nothing happened.
Boating accident, no cops
Be safe, and don’t stop, Sista! ✊✌️🇨🇦💖
Can someone refresh my Journalism 101?
Stop it.
Now.

Rachel, this is not a moment to stand by yourself.
This support is not the only reason. It’s thousands of reasons.
You can stand up for yourself, with all of us standing behind you.
Responsible, ethical journalism is imperative to any functional democracy. Please Don't Stop 🙏
Maybe reach out to Lisa Laflamme...I believe she sued CTV for their treatment of her.
This is absolutely disgusting and I'd be happy to contribute to a fund for a law suit.

you speak truth to power and that's even more important now
I know you won't shut up about such injustice. Many people are standing with you.
I'm just one. Thank you!
It’s their modi’s operendi this election - It wasn’t always like this - Poilievere has taken the CPC to the populous politics of the far right
The CPC should have kept O’Toole instead of ruining the party
Surrendering to bad faith assaults of various kinds by right wing extremists is not a success strategy for civilization, and it's hideous to see it increasingly normalized. Yikes.
I imagine that wsa the producer of themorning show ? You should publish her name and email. I would love to send her a piece of my mind directly. 1/2

Way to renew your ultra shittiness @ctvnews-rss.bsky.social not that you’d totally recovered from the LaFlamme debacle.
Keep doing what you’ve been doing.
It IS making a difference.
CTV’s loss will be a reputable, strong network’s gain.
The segment is “CTV Your Morning” from 6:00 - 9:00 and Rachel was missing on March 28. I made a complaint that fact-checking disappeared and that valuing opinion over fact compromises journalistic integrity and the quality of our media landscape.
Tell them how you feel. Honest journalism shouldn't be silenced because of online harassment and trolls.

Seem familiar?
you deserve more
your facts are true
and so are you
The "far left" as you say, is advocating for the truth.
It's all about the RW attacking CTV in an attempt to suppress the truth by fact checking, and the LW retaliating against CTV for subsequently caving into pressure & refusing to expose Poilievre's disinformation.
If you don't understand why the conservatives are against it, you better do some research.
I avoid network news and most publications. It's difficult enough to wade through the bias without trying to filter through the untruths.
If you have a podcast or blog, tell us and we will follow.
All the talk radio stations (eg AM 640 in TO) & 1/2 the newspapers are 24/7 MAGA propaganda.
This type of attack on journalism will destroy Canada as it has done in the US
Though I'd be proud that the Poilievere campaign is in such shambles that they reacted so outrageously to get you cancelled. The unflappable apple-eating image that they loved to promote has been shown to be BS.
Going "oh ok, we won't have facts any more, then" is uh. REALLY not one of the right ones...
Are you free to air the segment yourself?
(Now, does this constitute defamation? CPC said things that're false, there's actual reputation/financial harm.)

Who do we call at CTV?
A real piss off
Please don't ever stop what you are doing.
Keep kicking at the darkness till it bleeds daylight.
Elbows up
I’ve been a journalist 40 years.
If the quotes are accurate, MacLean effectively gave editorial control of a news program to a propaganda shit stain.
*Journalism malpractice* doesn’t begin to describe how astonishingly incompetent MacLean is.
I'm sorry this happened to you
I thought they despised cancelling, it seems they prefer fascism.
Fuk them!
That's why conservatives are always projecting, so they can later do what they claim the other side is doing.
CTV news mostly sucks. They have way too many Royal Family stories no one cares about.
Fuck #traitorPP 💩🤡 party of lies!
Either my account is suppressed or my efforts are all in vain and I can delete my work

This is fucked up.
Sincerely,

This is awful. Lies are perpetuated because the news doesn’t have the backbone to call them lies. Bullies are in charge because cowards run the news; beholden to the far right wealthy. Bye ctv. Absolute crap decision that says it all about who you are.
CTV is a cowardly organisation.
(It's a Canadian news organization, so we already knew that)
Rachel, you are a gem and have loads of Integrity. Use this anger to motivate you foward.
Take care, Rachel.
Shame on CTV for their cowardice and abandonment of integrity.
Shame on the far-right trolls for their vile actions.
Shame on the CPC for its deep involvement.
Mos of all, shame on PIerre Poilievre for turning the CPC into a far-right party of vulgarity and hate.
If CTV is not willing to fact check lies then the CTV has no further reason to exist.
Media's promulgation of mis/disinformation is one of the reasons our modern society is under existential threat.
I accept media isn't objective and is biased, but critically, media has to be factual.
Ever heard of the fact checker David Wallace? Because a journalist is required here. 👇
https://youtu.be/nWwH5GYcHbM
I also noticed you never said anything like “it’s ok” - which is awesome, because it’s definitely not ok.
Fact checking is now a "DISTRACTION" of what CTV is trying to do?
CTV, I'd like to know what are you trying to do? Hide truth? Hide misinformation?
I emailed them... Tomorrow I'll phone all day long. They are not performing journalism They are performing #Nazi Sympathizing
Stay strong you rock!
Here is my ssong.I hope it makes you feel strong to sing along!

Complete BS
Everything you face on Twitter is why I left that side of politics for good, became an ABC voter. Pathetic, weak and disgusting individuals emboldened to do this crap.
I know this first-hand.
I hope something better comes along. Or you can build your own news show. One with Blackjack and strippers. In fact....forget about the news show..
Cable is getting canceled after this election. We don't need it anymore.
All journalists that have a place in the people's hearts are the ones that spoke the truth no matter if some did not want to hear it.
You are their loss.
Of course the conservatives want the lies to be told .
Look at what they do behind closed doors .
CTV needs to get slammed with complaints
Email: [email protected]
Hey Canada 🇨🇦 all of you repeating the "corrupt news media" line, THIS is where it comes from. Intimidation and suppression are top drawer in their toolbox because it works. Snap tf out of it.
Skamski/identifiable individuals need to be sued for libel. This has got to end.

I will send a letter tomorrow!
What other news aren’t we hearing about because the networks are scared to put it out.
We need to flood them
