The story of a Toronto police officer accused of drinking a dead man's booze was a hot topic on just about every show on every talk station in the city Thursday. And just about all of them made an oblique reference to a Toronto reporter doing the same kind of thing while waiting for an interview several years ago. 

Every host refused to mention his name or when it happened, but they noted it was on YouTube.

In case you're not familiar with the outtake, it was from City TV and it can be seen right off the top in the video below. And yes, its a pretty outrageous breach of ethics. (That's BT host Kevin Frankish's voice on the "Crimestoppers" satire that follows.)
