We the undersigned viewers urge CTV News to reverse its decision to cancel Rachel Gilmore's fact-checking segment after just one episode. While we recognize there were criticisms, we believe this abrupt cancellation raises important questions about journalistic fairness and due process.  

Key Issues: 
- Journalists deserve evaluation based on their current work, not past controversies  
- Fact-checking is especially vital during election coverage  
- Canceling after one episode doesn't allow for proper assessment  

We Request:
1. A minimum 4-week trial period for the segment  
2. Clear public standards for evaluating on-air talent  
3. Protection of editorial decisions from social media pressure  

Support Balanced Journalism
