THE KIND OF LIFE IT'S BEEN
ROBERTSON, LLOYD
For sixty years, Lloyd Robertson appeared on Canadian television screens as a journalist and an anchor,
bringing us the major events of his day. The longest-serving TV news anchor in Canadian history, first on CBC
and then on CTV, Robertson remains one of the most accomplished journalists of our time. His career is truly the
story of Canada over the past half century, as he told us about key events like the moon landing, JFK's
assassination, Trudeaumania, Terry Fox's run, the Montreal Massacre, 9/11 and the royal weddings. In The Kind
of Life It's Been, Robertson shares the inside story and the insights he has gained over his long career, from
breaking into the business in his hometown of Stratford, Ontario, to joining the CBC, to his highly public
departure for CTV to his career as senior editor of CTV News. Filled with fascinating and often hilarious
anecdotes about Robertson's career, this book captures the essential tales of our time and is a must for any
Canadian interested in the inner workings of a frenetic newsroom.
