The firing of notable Canadian news anchor Lisa LaFlamme from CTV News has sparked controversy online and companies to make statements on aging.
"At 58, I still thought I’d have a lot more time to tell more of the stories that impact our daily lives. Instead, I leave CTV humbled by the people who put their faith in me to tell their story," LaFlamme continued. In CTV's year-in-review special, the publication noted the journalist explained that because of the pandemic, she couldn't see her hair colorist and was spraying her roots before going on air.
"Any necessary changes that become evident will be implemented swiftly to ensure a respectful, unified workplace," he said. Bibic added that Melling had been placed"on leave effective immediately pending the outcome of the workplace review that is proceeding."LaFlamme’s departure prompted support from companies like Wendy's and Dove, who temporarily changed their logos to have gray elements and raised awareness for aging in women.
Unbelievable.
