Cameras and politics: a match made in hell

The news that the Senate is about to follow the Commons in allowing television (a mere 37 years later — that’s sober second thought for you!) brought back memories of what the Commons was like before the TV cameras. I share my reflections on how TV has changed parliament in my column for tomorrow’s Ottawa Citizen and many other Postmedia newspapers. Warning for the faint of heart: it ain’t pretty.
