Ranked in descending order, here are the religious groups as covered by the above newspapers... The table shows the number of items that referred to each group, the percentage that were fully about religion, the percentage of space that was made up by photographs or illustrations, the average size (in square centimetres) of each item, and finally, the percentage of all items in the Manitoban papers that referred to each religious group.
It should be noted, however, that information was available for only a few dates during the three time periods. See the individual newspaper pages for details.
