Good Morning #Canada
#HappyBirthday to Arthur Kent, born December 27, 1953 in MedicineHat, Alberta. Now well known as an experienced and trusted Canadian television journalist and author, he rose to international prominence during the 1991 Persian Gulf War during which he acquired the nickname "The Scud Stud". He is the brother of Canada's former Minister of the Environment Peter Kent. I have an impression from this 2018 interview with Kent that there's some dissatisfaction with the state of the news media, an industry much criticized in the 7 years since. There are some interesting insights from a journalist that has experienced and reported on significant events in recent history.
