  • Some Personal Reflections on Manitoba Political Journalism
    DRAFT Some Personal Reflections on Manitoba Political Journalism By Frances Russell Prepared for the Roblin Professorship Conference, St. John’s College, University of Manitoba, Nov. 20‐22, 2008 Manitoba political journalism As a veteran of 46 years in journalism, I’ve witnessed one of the most profound and dramatic revolutions in the news business since Gutenberg invented the printing press. I began my career at the Winnipeg Tribune in May, 1962 after graduating with a BA in history and political science. Back then, Winnipeg was a fiercely competitive newspaper market, boasting two broadsheet dailies representing the nation’s two major newspaper chains: Southam, owned by the family of the same name and FP Publications, owned by the Siftons. Both the Trib and its bigger rival, the Winnipeg Free Press, put out a morning and up to three afternoon editions daily, re-plating the front page as necessary to carry breaking news. This was the era before computers, before tape recorders, before the internet, before the blackberry. Reporters scribbled their notes on copy paper using thick yellow newsprinter pencils. They pounded out their stories on blank sheets of newsprint wadded, along with carbon paper, into heavy black Underwood typewriters. Sometimes as many as four or five copies were required, the first for the all-important Canadian Press wire and the remainder for various editors. If they were on deadline, reporters would rip each page out as soon as they had completed a paragraph, shout “Copy” and hand it to a “copy boy” who would rush one page to the city editor, another to his assistant and literally skewer a third on CP’s long, very sharp metal spike resting on the city editor’s desk.
