Dude, I've worked in newsrooms and at CTV on the weekend in the past. Believe me when I say this, a mistake like that can happen. They are usually caught and fixed before they air. I never liked splicing a clip together because of that reason, even when it made the clip shorter (which is very important in television). CTV is a shit show right now because they got rid of almost all of their senior leaders in the newsroom. Now, I cannot say what was in the hearts and minds of the reporter and editor, but I can tell you that how it happened is the most likely scenario. CTV has a journalistic ethics code that spells out and bans the use of taking clips out of context, and that's probably why they bot were fired.
