    This is sad and shocking news. Blatchford was larger than life and the best crime reporter Canada has ever had.https://twitter.com/StewGlobal/status/1227583635789840384 …

    I can't believe it. She had the biggest heart of any journalist I've ever known. http://nationalpost.com/wcm/c346f224-8ad2-466c-9776-3b83dddafcd6 …

        Her opinion writing was also some of the worst outside of Rex Murphy.

        She was certainly larger than life and a real fixture but no, she was not the best crime reporter the country produced.

        Okay, maybe I going a bit far. But she really knew how to report a courtroom and had an impressive network of sources (perhaps too much so).

        I disagreed with almost all of her opinion pieces. Her courtroom pieces were extremely well written, even if outrage seemed to be the norm. I'm sure she'll be missed by the journalism community.

        I'm guessing you didn't see this article by her, with her viewpoints on Indigenous issues? It is horrific.https://nationalpost.com/opinion/christie-blatchford-inevitable-puffery-and-horse-manure-surrounds-hunger-strike-while-real-aboriginal-problems-forgotten …

        Reminder of the kind of stuff Blatchford believed in before everyone breaks their necks singing her praises today. Inveterate racist who had way too big of a platform for way too long. Condolences to her family. pic.twitter.com/2epnqq3L0q

        Her work concerning rehtaeh parsons and Stephanie Guthrie are two recent examples of why is disliked and ultimately disrespected her. I don’t care how nice she was outside her columns, she was often quite monstrous in her writing and opinion
