CBC's response to my eMail to them... Given my severe criticism of that organization, I've decided to share a more professional response out of them. Ian. +++++++++++++++ Thanks very much for your e-mail. You're absolutely right. We were wrong in what we said about QLT Inc. on Wednesday night. The company didn't issue an earnings warning, and Fred Langan was mistaken when he made that statement to our market watcher during the program. We pride ourselves on trying to be as accurate as possible when we report on business news. (That includes Fred Langan, who has considerable experience as a business journalist inside and outside of the CBC). Unfortunately that wasn't the case with the QLT story on Wednesday night. We will be airing a correction on tonight's program so our viewers know the real situation with QLT. My apologies to you (and our other viewers) for this mistake. We'll try to do better - hopefully a lot better - in the future. Thanks again for the e-mail. Alan Habbick Senior Producer Newsworld Business News
