LILLEY: Bell fights back too late as most media go with easy, and incorrect, story on LaFlamme
There’s more to the story of Lisa LaFlamme’s ouster than age, gender and hair colour but Brian Lilley argued that it’s a case of too little, too late for Bell to come out of the situation with any sort of positive reviews.
Bell’s handling of LaFlamme’s firing was a textbook example of what not to do from beginning to end and her video was the cherry on top, completely catching Bell off-guard.
Whether or not LaFlamme and her executive producer, Rosa Hwang, made the newsroom a toxic workplace is beside the point now – that narrative will just get lost in the rest of the mire.
Fight at Rogers Centre leaves woman seriously injured: Report
Baseball or basebrawl?
An altercation between two women during a Jays game last week quickly escalated into an all-out melee that left one seriously injured after she was punched in the face by a man with her hair-pulling opponent.
The two fled the game but it was later reported that the woman and man were charged after turning themselves in.

Lewis was in Toronto last weekend for Fan Expo and while Air Canada left him with a sour taste, he isn’t holding it against Canadians.
Rut, rut, rut for the home team: Couple caught having sex at Blue Jays’ game
The most salacious story of the week comes out of Rogers Centre — but instead of a brawl, this was all about raunchy couple who either thought they could get away with having sex in the 500 level during a Jays game or didn’t care if they got caught.
Liz Braun gets all the fun stories.
Olympic swimmer slams ‘vulgar’ comments for showing off medals in bikini
Italian synchronized swimmer Linda Cerruti pretty much lives in a swimsuit, so one would think that her showing off her collection of medals while wearing a bikini wouldn’t be a big deal.
But, alas, the Internet can be a weird and wonderful place or a horrible, gross place – the latter of which Cerruti has been dealing with, Eddie Chau reported.
But the 28-year-old Olympian blasted trolls for their “sexist and vulgar” comments, saying the photos were meant to be artistic and she didn’t appreciate her body being sexualized. You know these are the same people who only look at the photos in Playboy and don’t read the articles.
