The CFL is bc;gin‘ for a black eye, when it lets a station incapable of proper coverage to take over the TV package. However, the plight of the northern footâ€" ball fan was, it seems, never one to stand between the good old CFL and its yen for the bucks. Some took a swipe at the CBC because the Corporation refused to allow CTV to use the CBC outlets to reach the majority of the people. The CBC, they cried, was depriving the people of their weekly quota of Canadian football. CTV officials were included in this group of CBC critics. CFTO is controlled by The Telegram and naturally has the platoon of Tely writers at their disposal. (This isn‘t difficult to see when one reads the Tely columns dealâ€" ing with TV). Since it was up to the football league, not theâ€" TV stations, to make sure of the football coverage before awarding the conâ€" tract, CTV should have laid the blame where it belonged and refrained from joinâ€" ing the knockâ€"theâ€"CBC chorus.
