Why subscribe to The Other Wave?
Many of you know me as someone who’s long been at the forefront of disruption in journalism, with one foot inside the Canadian media system and one foot outside of it. After nearly two decades working on the editorial and business sides of this industry both at home and abroad, it’s time for me to lift the curtain.
Enter The Other Wave, a newsletter I’m launching this summer that will (1) give you an insider’s look at how I’m challenging the status quo in Canadian journalism and (2) document my outsider’s journey building a media product that will embody modern Canada as you and I see it — that is, younger generations of Canadians who share the same forward-thinking values.
You might’ve read or heard me in the news recently, talking about my organization’s Calls to Action to strengthen newsroom diversity in Canada, which a number of emerging and establishment media outlets — including The Globe and Mail, The Toronto Star and The Walrus — have recently endorsed. Right now, I’m meeting with editors-in-chief/executive managers at these and other outlets, as well as leaders at Canadian journalism schools and unions, to support them in their efforts and to hold them accountable; I’ll be sharing exclusive insights from our exchanges in The Other Wave.
Please subscribe to get full access to my newsletter (you won’t have to worry about missing anything — every new edition of The Other Wave goes directly to your inbox). I’d love if you spread the word to anyone who’d be interested in signing up, too.
