His knack for broadcasting was cultivated in 1973 when Shaw worked as a technical trainee for Baton Broadcasting, which eventually became CTV News. Ken served as the associate writer and actor of the sitcom SHH! and "It's The News" with a simple start.

In 1979, Shaw became a reporter for CTV Toronto, where he reported on major happenings and news stories from American news programs such as Nightline, Good Morning America, and The Today Show on NBC. Ken started appearing on the midnight newscast of CTV television in 1981.

He has been the National Editor for CTV since 1998. During a two-year period between 1999 and 2001, Ken won many new fans in homes across Canada. His weekday presentation on the CTV News channel became very popular and brought him good fortune and fame. Ken worked at CTV Toronto, and he served as the co-host for CTV News which aired at noon and 6 PM, along with co-anchor Michelle Dube.

In 2008, Ken was nominated for the Gold Ribbon Award at the CAB Convention and won the award for his outstanding contribution to community service. The Gold Ribbon Award is a great recognition and tribute to broadcasters who have dedicated their lives to improving and enhancing their communities.

Ken has been making a substantial income since becoming a professional journalist. He is ultimately satisfied with his career, and he is also pleased with the income he makes in the journalism industry. He is praised as a journalist with many years of experience and has played a prominent role in the CTV News Channel station scenes based in Toronto.

Charity Work

Besides his journalism and media work, he spends much time supporting non-profit organizations, charities, and community events. With an excellent journalism career already established, Ken always tries to participate in social events such as charity functions.

Ken left a lasting impression with his charity activities and is currently involved with two charity organizations as a director: Ronald McDonald House of Charities of Canada and ProAction Cops & Kids. Ken's directing role at charity organizations appears to be a natural fit for him, as he was the director at The HinksDellcres Centre and The Duke of Edinburgh Awards prior to his current director role with the Ronald McDonald House of Charities of Canada and ProAction Cops & Kids. The Whitby Abilities Centre, which deals with individuals with special needs, had Ken serve as the organization's Chair in 2012.
