At 4:00 p.m., Sept. 18, the Winnipeg Free Press announced it had laid off what amounts to 8 per cent of its newsroom, according to the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers Union of Canada (CEP); the union representing staff at the Free Press and several other Manitoba newspapers. The seven laid off staffers include dep- uty online editor John White, web pagina- tor Mark Lowe and reporters Alison Mayes, Lindsey Wiebe, Rob Williams, Adam Wazny and Melissa Martin. The cuts precipitated a flurry of social media commentary, with laid off report- ers actively tweeting their disappointment, questioning the future of the Winnipeg Free Press as a renowned Canadian newspaper. Among the most vocal critics was Melissa Martin, a 30-year-old former general assign- ment reporter at the Free Press. “When you treat your content like it's disposable, like it's time limited, are you really so surprised that people don't want to Daniel Crump pay for it?” she said. Melissa Martin was one of five reporters abruptly laid off by the winnipeg Free Press Sept. 18, a move that shocked news junkies in the city. By cutting editorial staff so drastically, Martin added, the Winnipeg Free Press is ultimately sending the wrong message to its (CBA) with newspaper management.

  • Shine a Light: Surveying Locality, Independence, and Digitization in Ottawa’S Independent Rock Scene
    Shine a Light: Surveying Locality, Independence, and Digitization in Ottawa’s Independent Rock Scene by Michael Robert Audette-Longo A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Cultural Mediations Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2016 Michael Audette-Longo ii Abstract This dissertation examines the articulation and reconfiguration of locality in Ottawa's independent (indie) rock scene. It argues that styles of producing and relating to indie music that have been traditionally embedded in local scenic activity and practices of “do it yourself” (DIY) have been translated into more ubiquitous, quotidian, and valuable metadata and labour that organizes and powers the operations of disparate digital media sites, including digital music services like Bandcamp, CBC Radio 3, and Wyrd Distro. This argument is developed through closer analyses of the following case studies: the entrepreneurial strategies and musical focuses of Ottawa-based independent record labels Kelp and Bruised Tongue Records; scene-bound media like zines, blogs, music video and campus/community radio; the re-articulation of local regions as metadata that organize the search and retrieval functionalities of the digital music streaming services CBC Radio 3 and Bandcamp (a particular iteration of local regions I dub the “indexi-local”); and the concurrent incorporation of DIY labour and reconfiguration of the business of independent music evident in the digital music retailers Bandcamp and Wyrd Distro. This project contends that in the midst of digitization, the media sites, entrepreneurial strategies, and subcultural practices traditionally folded into the production of independence in local indie music scenes persist.
