    Covering Climate: A Comparative Assessment of B.C. Media1 Shane Gunster, Simon Fraser University Discussion Paper prepared for the Climate Justice Project, May 2010 Explanations for the lack of strong public engagement with climate change often pin the blame on the failure of mainstream media to accurately report the consensus views of climatologists and other natural scientists that, first, the anthropogenic basis of global warming is an accepted fact and not a contested hypothesis, and, second, the impacts of such warming will be severe and possibly catastrophic if strong measures are not taken immediately to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In his recent book Climate Cover-Up: The Crusade to Deny Global Warming, for instance, James Hoggan (2009) describes the diverse and well-financed efforts of a variety of groups – chief among them corporate beneficiaries of the fossil fuel economy and think-tanks promoting the virtues of neoliberal capitalism – to propagate doubt and uncertainty about the causes and consequences of climate change, even questioning whether or not global warming is actually happening (also see Jacques 2008; McRight and Dunlap 2003). As a number of media scholars have argued, such groups have had a great deal of success in disseminating this ‘climate of scepticism’ in the mass media (especially in North America), helping generate and sustain a widespread misperception among the general public that climate science is characterized by controversy, debate and fundamental uncertainty (e.g. Antilla 2005; Boykoff 2007; Boykoff and Boykoff 2004; Grundman 2007; Oreskes 2004). Unsure whether scientists agree that climate change is a real problem or not, the public assign it a low priority as compared with more pressing issues whose certainty is not in doubt.

    Linda Lewin Graif The Paradox of Public Discourse: Designing Vancouver Library Square rchitecture is a discipline that operates in a complex public A arena. While architecture may be defined as the art and sci­ ence of conceptualizing the built environment, the journey from the drawing board to the constructed artifact is a perilous one. The architect's initial concept, itself subject to constraints of many kinds, must be negotiated with clients, engineers, contractors, financial partners, special interest groups, and the general pub­ lic.

APPROVAL Name: Matthew O’Grady Degree: Master of Publishing Title of Project Report: The 2003 Relaunch of Vancouver Magazine Supervisory Committee: ________________________________ Dr. Valerie Frith Senior Supervisor Assistant Professor, Master of Publishing Program Simon Fraser University ________________________________ Dr. Rowland Lorimer Director, Master of Publishing Program Simon Fraser University ________________________________ Mr. Jim Sutherland Editorial Director Transcontinental Media West Date Approved: ________________________________ ii ABSTRACT This project report examines the 2003 relaunch of Vancouver magazine. It provides an overview of the magazine’s 35-year history, as well as an analysis of its current state: editorial, advertising, circulation, readership and competition. The report also offers an inside account of the strategic planning that went into the relaunch, including: findings from a July 2002 competitive analysis of Toronto Life, Canada’s preeminent city magazine; highlights from a November 2002 Vancouver magazine subscriber survey; and a chronicle of various planning meetings, held within Transcontinental Media West, between July and December 2002. This report evaluates Vancouver magazine’s prospects for a successful relaunch within the framework of the two city magazine studies, each of which addresses the role and purpose of a city magazine. Questions and findings from those studies are then posed to three editors of Vancouver magazine (past and present), who offer an analysis of the city magazine research within the context of their specific experiences at the magazine.
