CBC News host Wendy Mesley has been disciplined after an internal investigation found she used "offensive language on two separate occasions during editorial meetings," both the host and CBC confirmed Thursday. Mesley was suspended from hosting on June 9 after she said she "used a word that should never be used" during an editorial discussion about race. Mesley posted a lengthy statement on Twitter on Thursday, addressing the now-concluded investigation. "I used a word, and yes, it's the word people think," she wrote. CBC suspended the remaining season of The Weekly, the news program Mesley hosts on Sundays, on June 12.
