I think we made the point this morning that we would like digital, and online, and social media to be part of our code. Our code recognizes the importance of fairness, accuracy, accountability, and integrity. I'm certainly a believer that regardless of the medium in which you are operating as a journalist, the rules should apply across the board. One of our recommendations was that an organization such as the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council might want to look at administering online and social media journalism as well, to ensure there is that level playing field in terms of accountability and integrity. We would welcome online and social media being brought into that fold.
