from the "CJOH Ottawa goes up in flames" dept.


A massive fire destroyed CTV Ottawa's (aka CJOH) newsroom this morning. The station's video archive was also destroyed.

From CTV Ottawa's website:
Firefighters are on the scene of an overnight fire that ripped through CTV Ottawa's newsroom and caused more than $2.5 million in damage.

Flames began on the second floor of the Merivale Road building sometime before 4:30 Sunday morning.

It took 70 firefighters and 18 fire trucks more than two hours to bring the blaze under control.

The rest of the story and video are HERE.
