A Fisher has returned to the Sun Media fold in Ottawa.
Tobias Fisher, one of five sons of the late Sun political columnist Doug Fisher, has been hired as news editor of QMI's Ottawa bureau.
A Quebecor Media press release says Fisher will "manage the operations of the national bureau and assist in preparing for the launch of the Sun TV News channel, set to launch January 1, 2011."
While his father and brother, Matthew, worked for the Sun, Tobias is new to the chain after 28 years in television news (Global, CTV and CBC).
"Tobias is among the most respected and talented journalists in Canada," Kory Teneycke, VP development for Quebecor Media, says in the press release. "He will be an invaluable addition to our Hard News team as we prepare for the launch of Sun TV News."
Meanwhile, with all of the hiring going on, is approval of the Sun News channel a foregone conclusion?

I'm sure they will just convert Sun TV to the news channel, and can at least use Sun TV to host some programming if the approval is delayed

ReplyDeleteNice quote. That line could be used for many people let go by Sun Media in the past 18 months.
