May 24 Ottawa GO held a news […]
When
1976-05-24
Description
May 24 Ottawa GO held a news conference at the GO Centre to protest the raid on the Club Baths on May 22. The news conference received sympathetic coverage from both Ottawa dailies, as well as all eight local radio stations and four television stations. On May 25, the Ottawa Citizen held a special internal meeting and decided not to publish the names of the found-ins charged in the bath raids. This was a reversal of its position taken in 1975 in the case of the "Ottawa Sex Scandal"; the paper had been severely criticized by GO and others for its handling of that case.
