It's not like marrying your brother

CH Television reporter Moira McLean seems to have become the media "it" girl of the moment. According to the rumour mill, she isn't just being romanced by The New VI. If whispers are to be believed, BCTV is also bringing Ms. McLean flowers and chocolates. The CanWest Global Corp. broadcaster wants to make her a provincial legislative reporter. Of course some (although certainly not Public Eye) might question the optics of bringing in the Liberal's former press secretary to cover her past employers. But, according to at least one senior New Democrat insider, Ms. McLean has been nothing but "straight up" in dealing with the lefties since leaving caucus for journalism. No word on what, if anything, would happen to BCTV legislative bureau chief Keith Baldrey if she took the position.

This doesn't surprise me. Gordo has been hiring ex-media folks into positions since day one. It's another attempt to control media and what news gets out. Look out Sean, Gordo might offer you a position you can't refuse.
