mike duffy

Before Duff was a Canadian senator, he was a TV reporter. He and I were among the journalists in Jasper, Alberta covering Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau. The PM was meeting with farm leaders discussing grain shipping. Very contentious at the time. We were waiting in a room for the farm leaders. They trickled in. I noticed one standing alone. An important fellow who the other reporters hadn’t noticed. I walked over and started interviewing him. Suddenly somebody grabbed my arm from behind and yanked it, hard; the arm with the hand holding my microphone. It was Duffy. My mic displayed call letters of my radio station. It was in his shot so he assaulted me. Mike Duffy is a jerk. I fought the urge to smack him back.
