Jam! was a Canadian website which covered entertainment news. It was part of theCanoe.com online portal, formerly owned and operated byQuebecor through itsSun Media division, and now owned byPostmedia Network.[1]
Jam! was the only media outlet that published a comprehensive collection of the official Canadian record charts as compiled byNielsen SoundScan andNielsen Broadcast Data Systems.
CKXT-TV, Sun Media's television station inToronto, aired a nightly entertainment magazine series,Inside Jam!. However, due to low ratings the program's airtime was reduced substantially. Effective March 24, 2006, the show went from a daily program to a weekend-only show,[2] before being removed from the schedule altogether. One of the hosts of the show,Chris Van Vliet, announced on the programme in February 2010 that he would be leaving the show to join theCBS affiliate inCleveland as their entertainment reporter. His co-hostTara Slone re-located in August 2010 toCalgary to become co-host ofBreakfast Television onCityTV Calgary.[3]
