CTV News Accused of Splicing Poilievre Clip, Apologizes for Disinformation
Sep 24, 2024, 12:45 AM
CTV News has been accused of splicing and editing a video clip of Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre to misrepresent his statements. The network allegedly combined different parts of Poilievre's speeches to fabricate a message he did not actually say, even covering his face to hide the fake edit. This act has been widely condemned as a breach of journalistic ethics and a deliberate attempt to deceive the public. Critics argue that the incident was a calculated effort to discredit Poilievre, with some suggesting it was done to protect the Prime Minister, who subsidizes the network. CTV News has issued an apology, claiming the splicing was a misunderstanding during the editing process. However, many insist it was no misunderstanding and label it as disinformation.
