Bibliographic database can be searched online by title, date, editor, state or subject matter topic. Describes the development of this collection by Donald Watson, long-time agricultural editor.
4 pages, "Charlotte Empey is a unique figure in Canadian magazines. She's the editor and publisher of two women's books. But with all her power, can she bring back journalistic credibility to Homemakers?"
Cites journalism educator Don Ranley who urges maintaining the wall between editorial and advertising, in the interest of reader credibility. "I am not a businessman, but it has to be good business to be trusted."
Editor of Western Farm Press explains how shameless it would be for editors to waste paper and ink to brag about their grandchildren and even include photos of them (as he does here).
