“We don’t comment on the specifics of individual employee matters,” Scott Henderson said in an email to The Canadian Press.

Bliss did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The allegations against him have not been verified by The Canadian Press.

The veteran reporter, who worked at CTV’s bureau at the Ontario legislature, was suspended in late January hours after the publication of a blog post containing allegations by Bridget Brown, who describes herself as a Calgary-based entrepreneur and former CTV employee.

Brown did not name Bliss in her post, but Henderson, Bell Media’s vice president of communications, said at the time that Bliss had been suspended pending an investigation in light of the allegations.
