OTTAWA — The CBC says it has transferred an Ottawa reporter to Toronto after she fed questions to a Liberal MP during the Mulroney-Schreiber hearings in December.
The public broadcaster says reporter Krista Erickson's actions were 'inappropriate' and violated CBC policies.
The broadcaster says Erickson acted on her own in providing questions to a Liberal MP and there was no bias in the news coverage.
Doug Finley, director of political operations for the Conservatives, complained to the CBC in a Dec. 14 letter that Erickson's actions raised questions about the broadcaster's impartiality.
The CBC opened an investigation after obtaining the letter.
Finley's complaint was later cited in a Tory fundraising letter.

I applaud the budget, even though Health Care and education may stay unscathed. Sadly this cannot last and I worry to later this year where cuts will become enviable. If anything, this provides the Wildrose Alliance plenty of ammo when an election is called.
