Unknown said...: Bill good and micky all hide the things they should be reporting, spector! Tells it like it is!If he say this then I will believe him.I have come to respect his view after listening to the Bill Good show for over 5years and I think some of what he says is not to my liking but some of what norman says is right on, no bars held and speaks of truth,that we desperately need in this British Columbia reporters that dig and report the news,that really is what is needed,just opinions do not cut it anymore!we need the truth and honest reporting.Now this little clique of opinionated reporting that most of the reportr are all working for the same can- west, as for baldry he is always defending and being the troubleshooter for this Governemnt,thank you Bill Tielman the few of you really try and work for the people, a real reporter; Monday, 10 August 2009 at 17:57:00 GMT-7
Gary E said...: 59000. As the Dutchman would say, Faaaantastic.; Monday, 10 August 2009 at 18:15:00 GMT-7
DPL said...: 59,000 and counting is a number not to be ignored. Since it seems my computer doesn't want me to be one of the folks on the list, I'll just have to find just how to get on the list with so many others.
Congrats are in order, and I do note that you got things up and running while the opposition leader was out camping somewhere. Does she have any staff around who knows where she goes on her little trips, and if so, why wouldn't they be a little quicker to start a rumble.; Monday, 10 August 2009 at 19:57:00 GMT-7

Anonymous said...: If Gordon Campbell could appoint "Senators" the bulk of CanWest's BC newrooms, TV & Radio staff would all have "HONOURABLE" before their names as a life-time title.

Instead all they have is the word "WHORE" at the end of their names for the rest of their lives.

Bill Tieleman's coverage of the Basi-Virk/BC Legislature Raid Case praised by other journalists:

"This outstanding piece of journalism, in The Tyee, is the work of a journalist who has been deeply involved with this issue from the start and this article should be passed on as far and wide as possible."

- Broadcaster/columnist Rafe Mair on Bill Tieleman's "Hung Out To Dry" post-trial summary

"Bill Tieleman from 24 hours . . . . If you want to know about this trial and about this case, you have to read his blog – I mean, that’s just all there is to it – it’s required reading if you want to understand the BC Legislature Raid situation."

- Mike Smyth, columnist, The Province

"The Basi-Virk case....you’ve probably sat through more of these hearings and gone through more of the files and written about it than any other journalist in the province."

- Bill Good, host, The Bill Good Show, CKNW/Corus Radio Network

"Tieleman ...has done a first-rate job covering the trial."

- Paul Willcocks, columnist, the Victoria Times-Colonist

"Tieleman, who marries a considerable journalistic talent with one of the smartest political minds in the province, has been writing more web-exclusive material. And his coverage of the Basi-Virk trial is a must-read -- whether you're an insider or an outsider."

- Sean Holman, editor, PublicEyeOnline.com, columnist, Glacier Media

"24 Hours, the Vancouver paper that has been leading the coverage, as well as the hints of conspiracy in B.C."

- Norman Spector, columnist, Globe and Mail

"Although the major media in this circumstance has been giving the case significant coverage, Tieleman's reports on his blog have been outstanding.

The entire cut and thrust of legal wrangling and arguments has been covered and is accompanied by considered analysis.....His blog site coverage of the Basi-Virk trial is the most in depth treatment of one of British Columbia's biggest political scandals."

- Bill Bell, columnist, The North Shore News

"Mr. Tieleman has published online dispatches which, freed from the limitations of newsprint space or broadcast time, can run at length. They also remain available for those select readers who become obsessed with a case also known as Railgate.....

In another bizarre twist to a story with no shortage of them, Mr. Tieleman went to work one day in December only to discover his office had been ransacked. Bookcases had been tipped over and papers strewn, but nothing was missing.

To top it off, a press kit for the self-published novel The Raid, written by a retired military officer in Metchosin and featuring on its cover a photograph from the 2003 police raid, had been left in a conspicuous place."

- Tom Hawthorn, columnist, The Globe and Mail

Nobody has followed the Basi-Virk affair over its past five years with greater diligence than local journalist, Bill Tieleman....Tieleman deserves our thanks, a fistful of journalism awards and some merit citation for citizenship.

- David Berner, broadcaster, actor, writer, blogger - David Talks/The Berner Monologues

There are some journalists - columnist Bill Tieleman for example - who like me have remained on this story from the start. There should be a lot more of us, that's for sure.

- Mark Hume, reporter, The Globe and Mail
