Notes

Michael Dupuis examines press coverage of the Winnipeg General Strike. The work considers how newspapers and journalists reported on the strike, including competing narratives presented by pro- and anti-strike publications, and the emergence of new papers during the disruption.

Drawing on contemporary reporting, the book explores the influence of media accounts on public understanding of the events, including themes of labour unrest, fears of radicalism, and the broader national attention generated by the strike.
