WP:BLP of a broadcaster, who has a valid potential claim of notability for her association with a nationally distributed sports channel but lacks the reliable source coverage needed to clear WP:GNG for it. The only references here are a blog entry in the context of her past work as a local radio host, and a glancing namecheck of her existence in a newspaper blurb about her joining Sportsnet -- a job, for the record, from which she was laid off just one year later. And I can't find the depth or breadth of reliable source coverage about her needed to salvage this, either -- even on a Google search, I get namechecks and blogs, not substantive reliable source coverage about her. As always, simply existing as a broadcaster is no automatic guarantee of inclusion in Wikipedia -- the existence of reliable source coverage about her, sufficient to clear GNG, is what determines whether a Wikipedia article gets to happen or not.

 * She's not the subject of the Globe and Mail reference, but merely has her existence glancingly namechecked in an article about something other than her — and MarketWired is a press release distribution platform, in which the "coverage" was written by her own employer rather than by an independent source. So no, neither of those sources counts for anything at all toward getting her over a notability criterion. Bearcat (talk) 22:38, 20 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete -- a nn TV personality; sources above do not meet the WP:SIGCOV bar and are passing mentions. K.e.coffman (talk) 04:39, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
