Sheila Gunn Reid has become a star independent journalist in Canada, but a decade ago she wasn’t all that political and never would have imagined a job in media. Now the editor-in-chief of Rebel News, Gunn Reid got her start by making trouble for Liberal candidates on Twitter, and soon found she had a knack for journalism the legacy media wasn’t doing. She joins True North’s Andrew Lawton to talk about how she got her start in media as a mom and farmer in rural Alberta. Gunn Reid and Lawton also talk about media bias, independent journalism, and, erm, pickles.
