I've always admired David Akin. He's the best on CTV. Too good for them really.
During the last election campaign, then-prime minister Paul Martin's communications staff kept a list of reporters who wanted to ask questions and then they would call out a reporter from that list -- just like the current prime minister is doing.
But it quickly became apparent that Martin's communications staff was not happy with coverage some news organizations were giving his campaign and, as a result, reporters from those organizations were rarely or never, in one case, called upon to ask a question of the Liberal candidate.
How come the press never made this an issue when Paul Martin was PM? Smells fishy to me.
Except that he doesn't always tell the truth.
