CBC Radio Areva report erroneous
A statement issued by Areva states: “On April 3, 2008, CBC Radio and cbc.ca carried an erroneous and misleading story which reported: ‘The French nuclear safety watchdog has cited Areva for a number of serious infractions...’
“The facts of the matter are that in the ‘leaked’ letter to which the reporter refers, Areva was not cited by the regulator in any way, shape or form. In fact, the letter makes no mention of Areva.”
Areva adds that “We are gratified that no other media - to our knowledge - has made this mistake.”
