I abandoned all hope for CBC's news makeover Tuesday morning when host Anne-Marie Mediwake was on the phone with the dad who'd just lost his 13-year-old son to H1N1. He was losing control and sobbing but she wouldn't leave him any dignity or privacy. "I'm going to give you a chance to tell us how you want him remembered," she said, or something close. He dissolved further. Then a swift shift to cheery chat with a reporter about coffee.
