Acknowledgements
I owe an unpayable debt to my wonderful wife, who put up with countless late-night discussions, stacks of unwashed dishes and too many forgotten kisses. I couldn’t have done it without her support.
As well, I can’t express my appreciation enough to my academic supervisor, Katy Campbell, who re-arranged a lot of trees so I could see the forest in this project, and who supported me far beyond the terms of her job.
My colleagues at the University of King’s College School of Journalism, particularly Stephen Kimber and Kim Kierans, provided unqualified support for this project. As well Elizabeth Yeo and Lindsay Crylser were instrumental in getting me started.
A special thanks goes to Stanley Varnhagen for his patience and direction with ethical concerns.
And finally, I can’t thank my mom and dad enough for their selfless support of my many academic endeavors.
