	Southam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Southam is located on the River Stowe, which flows from Napton-on-the-Hill and joins the Warwickshire River Itchen which in turn flows into the River Leam.
		Southam is located between Leamington Spa and Daventry (on the A425) and between Coventry and Banbury (on the A423).
		Southam has connections to the English Civil War - King Charles I passed through the town just prior to the outbreak of war, and apparently was not made welcome by the townsfolk who refused to ring the church bells.

	Canada (Director of Investigation and Research) v. Southam Inc., 1997 CanLII 385 (S.C.C.)
		These community newspapers differ from the daily newspapers in a few respects: they serve smaller regions, they are distributed free of charge to all households in the regions they serve, and they are published only once, twice, or at most three times weekly.
		He found, in particular, that the Tribunal had not considered evidence that daily newspapers and community newspapers are functionally interchangeable and evidence that the owners of the daily newspapers considered themselves to be in competition against the community newspapers.
		To Southam's argument that the Tribunal had wrongly dismissed its proposed remedy as ineffective, he said that curial deference was due to the Tribunal on this, a finding of mixed law and fact.

		Newspaper editors would have to report each year to a press rights panel about the editorial content of a newspaper.
		A newspaper would be taxed if it were found the quality of content had suffered while excellence would be rewarded through subsidies and tax incentives.
		Southam is now the largest newspaper player in Canada with an average daily circulation of 1.4 million newspapers, or 27% of total daily newspaper circulation in Canada.

	Montreal Newspaper Guild - Links Relating to the CanWest Controversy
		The editor of Southam's Halifax Daily News is contradicting claims by a senior Southam representative that local editors have full autonomy in deciding whether to run or spike opinion pieces, and says he was told it would be a "career disaster" to defy head office.
		Moreover, Southam's editor-in-chief Murdoch Davis wrote that the newspapers "should not contradict the core position of the national pieces in editorials of their own," even if the national positions disregard the nuanced politics of the local readership.
		Southam told the publishers in writing that as far as editorial content went they were responsible' only to their own conscience.' The more important implication of the new policy is the chill it has imposed on the publishers and their editors.

		Editorials will be clearly identified as emanating from Southam News, not from the various local papers' own editorial staff, who will be forbidden to alter or contradict them in any way.
		According to Marsden, since taking over the chain of newspapers CanWest Global has encouraged all of its subsidiaries' editors to hew to a particular political line, resulting in less criticism of Canada's prime minister as well as the consolidation of a pro-Israeli perspective in editorials about the Middle East.
		In a second interview on As It Happens, Southam Editor-in-Chief Murdoch Davis, who writes the editorials from headquarters, argued that the development was reasonable, noting that there were perhaps 50-60 editorials and pieces of local commentary a week in addition to the 2-3 from the head office.

	Concentration of Newspaper Ownership
		The authors justify their choice by explaining that the Southam-owned newspaper was acquired by Hollinger in successive stages: Conrad Black first bought shares in Southam in 1991; in 1996, he took control of the chain and finally, in 1997, the Vancouver Sun presented its new layout.
		The establishment of major newspaper chains and conglomerates in the sixties and seventies and the recognition of journalism as a profession conferring a certain degree of autonomy upon its members have helped strengthen the notion that editorial management is independent of the newspaper owner.
		It is interesting to note that, on the heels of this announcement, a columnist from the Southam Newspaper agency, Christopher Young, published an article in The Gazette questioning the decision of the chain's new management to accept the resignation of such a highly respected editor-in-chief.

		Newspaper penetration is declining because readers don't have the time or the money, and many newspapers are not responding to readers' needs, Gartner said.

	National Post Boycott - Editorials
		The Southern Ontario Newspaper Guild, CEP Local 2000 (representing workers in BC newsrooms) and several other media unions are contributing a combined $60,000 per month and have vowed to continue their support until a settlement is reached.
		Those acts range from the tenacity with which strikers sat down in front of the trucks loaded with scab-produced newspapers to the tenderness one union member showed as he helped a sick colleague off with his coat and made sure he was seated comfortably at a union meeting.
		Passing from the Burgoyne family to Southam to Hollinger ownership in a matter of months, the newspaper's staff was reduced by 25 per cent in 1996.

		In the 1996 Southam Inc. Annual Report, Black wrote that the fired Southam executives were "consoled by an astonishingly generous system of golden handshakes." He lamented the fact that "management paid great attention to reinforcement of their own income security." It seems that what is good for the gander is not good for the geese.
		The Southam newspapers tended to attract second-rate journalists and to produce blandly written material echoing the political faddishness of the time.
		Southam, its management, and Ardell by implication were blamed for creating the threat to withdraw from CP.

		On Sunday he was fired by the owners of Southam a) for publishing an editorial that disagreed with the Southam line on prime ministerial conduct, and b) for not checking with the owners, the Aspers, before publishing the editorial.

		Many of its newspapers are the only ones published in their communities.
		On December 19, the Quebec National Assembly passed a motion asking Southam directors "to publish a statement of principle and of commitment to the quality and diversity of news, this in order to maintain and preserve the original character and autonomy of its Quebec daily, the Gazette.
		From the beginning it was understood that problems with dissenting views at Southam newspapers were broader than the chain-editorial issue.

	The real threat to press freedom (Canada)
		But when some of the big players in journalism education start to lecture the rest of us on the grand sweep of journalism and the media, and their role in society and the economy, everybody should pay attention.
		The reason for these outbursts of high-blown rhetoric is the CanWest decision to place "national editorials" in Southam newspapers, a chain that includes most major dailies across the country.
		At the same time, the government should provide direct funding for other newspapers and publications, creating a CBC-like structure of subsidies and government interference "to supplement the privately owned media" which, the Davey commission concluded, were a menace to a democratic society.

	CanWest Global Communications Corp., David Asper
		David has raised freedom of the press to new heights by essentially writing that the newspapers his family owns, are really garbage because they dare to criticize St. Jean of Shawinigan.
		Asper goes on to state that "the attacks on the PM seriously violate any notion of civil rights regarding the role and the burden of the accuser." This hits the nail on the head and illustrates the type of Clintonian democracy that is practiced by Chretien.
		It is the lack of independence of the ethics counsellor, not his personal characteristics that are repugnant to a democracy.

		Far from offering additional content to Canadians, this will practically vacate the power of the editorial boards of Southam newspapers and thereby reduce the diversity of opinions and the breadth of debate that to date has been offered readers across Canada.

		CanWest’s intention is initially to publish one national editorial a week in all major Southam newspapers.
		Without question, this decision will undermine the independence and diversity of each newspaper’s editorial board and thereby give Canadians a greatly reduced variety of opinion, debate and editorial discussion.
		Editorial boards at each newspaper exist to debate public policy issues, reach a consensus and then present the reasoning to the public.
