In his autobiography, My Paper Chase, Harold Evans looks back at his time as a sub on the then eight edition a day, hot metal produced Manchester Evening News, which was sold yesterday by the Guardian Media Group to Trinity Mirror.Evans writes: "Nothing before, and nothing I have experienced since, working for newspapers, radio, television and websites in London and New York and Washington, matches the speed demanded of everyone on the Evening News."
