Bible Bill And The Alberta Press Act - a podcast by Craig Baird

Way back in 1937, Bill Bill Aberhart, the premier of Alberta, attempted to deal with the press that he saw as unfair. He would implement an act that would limit the freedom of the press, force newspapers to print retractions and he even tried to jail a journalist. 

This is the story of Bible Bill and his crusade against the newspapers of Alberta
