Kory off the hook

Ottawa police will not be pursuing an investigation into the fraudulent names entered on the Avaaz petition regarding Fox News North after all. You can breathe a little easier now, Kory.

The online petition, which quickly gathered thousands of names, demanded that Sun TV not get any preferential treatment on its broadcast-licence application.

When Kory Teneycke (Ten-IKE) — Quebecor’s former chief proponent for Sun TV — ridiculed some of the names on the petition as clearly phoney, Avaaz.org went to police noting the petition list was not publicly available and that all the fake names came from a single IP address in Ottawa.

Teneycke resigned from Quebecor the day after the Avaaz police complaint.
