2:15CTV anchor Lisa LaFlamme ‘blindsided’ by Bell Media’s decision to end her contract

Now-former CTV chief news anchor Lisa LaFlamme posted a video on her Twitter account Monday, announcing the end of her 35-year career with the broadcaster. She said she was “blindsided” by the management’s “business decision” and thanked her audience as she recalled important moments in her career.

Bell Media says in a statement it “regrets” the way in which the departure of anchor Lisa LaFlamme has been handled, and will launch a third-party workplace review of the CTV newsroom after criticism.

More to come.
