Dwight Drummond Biography and Wiki
Dwight Drummond born on 22nd September 1968 in Montego Bay, Jamaica is a Canadian television journalist he currently works for CBC Television in Toronto.
Dwight was Citytv’s crime specialist. He started out as a security guard on Electric Circus in 1989. He has ever since worked as a teleprompter operator, floor director, studio cameraman, deputy chief of assignment, anchor of CityNews Streetbeat, and videographer for CityNews.
In 1995, he was accosted by two Toronto Police officers in what they described as a “high-risk takedown”, but it was characterized by outside observers as a racial profiling assault as there was no evidence that Drummond had done anything besides driving while black. The allegation of police misconduct was one of several which contributed to a wildcat strike by police officers in the summer of 1995.
Bill Blair, a supporter of community policing models, was assigned to head the affected police division in response to the strike. The incident contributed to Drummond’s own decision to move from a technical to an on-air journalist’s role with Citytv.
Drummond anchored CityNews at Noon and was later made an anchor for another newscast, CityNews at Five. Due to the Citytv layoffs in January 2010, Drummond lost his anchoring job but continued to work as the station’s crime specialist. He left the station September 6, 2010
