The Canadian Journalism Foundation (CJF) has nominated a report full of misleading claims about a pipeline protest for a journalism “excellence award.”
According to Blacklock’s Reporter, the CJF would not answer questions about misinformation in Narwhal journalist Amber Bracken’s report.
In November, Bracken and others documented an RCMP raid in northern British Columbia while holed up in a cabin with anti-pipeline protesters. Bracken was detained by police, and her ensuing report – which a federal memo found had one-sided and omitted key information – led to the arrest being labeled as unlawful by journalists including the Canadian Association of Journalists (CAJ).
