12 Days of the RRJ: Day 4 – Citytv

Decrease Font Size Increase Font Size Text Size Print This Page

When Citytv first took to the airwaves in 1972, it was clear it was television with a difference. But now, the Toronto station has lost its unique flair and seems tired and mundane. Everyone has his or her favourite villain for Citytv's decline, but it could use a new hero who’ll do something as visionary as its co-creator Moses Znaimer did almost 40 years ago.

Look for Aubin’s account of Citytv’s demise in the Winter 2011 issue of the Ryerson Review of Journalism, which launches on December 14 at the Cadillac Lounge in Toronto.
