==Origins in journalism==
Robert Scully was born in 1950, in Ottawa, Canada—of Irish and French ancestry. Coincidentally, the surname Scully is derived from the Irish name "O'Scolaidhe," meaning either "descendant of the storyteller," who was a regular official at the courts of the old Irish kings,〔(Celtic surnames from trades or occupations ). Retrieved 15 Feb 2011.〕 or "descendant of the scholar," from the Gaelic 'scolaidhe' or ‘scholar’.〔(The Scully Surname ). ''Ancestry.ca'' - Retrieved 15 Feb 2011.〕 Scully grew up in the working-class district of Hochelaga-Maisonneuve〔 in Montreal, and was educated at McGill University.〔〔(The Irish in Quebec - General Facts ). ''Canadian Irish Studies Foundation''. Retrieved 8 Feb 2011.〕
Encouraged by Claude Ryan to pursue journalism at the age of 19 years, Scully learned the ropes of journalism at ''Le Devoir'', first as Latin American correspondent. He even landed an interview with Salvador Allende.〔Carr, Dianna. (1989, August 1). "Scully and the constant suit; The uniform may change little, but what's holding up the pants is, well, daring". The Gazette, p. C3. Retrieved February 10, 2011, from Canadian Newsstand Major Dailies. (Document ID: 162366091).〕〔(Scully : une machine bien rodée ). (Nathalie Collard). Fédération professionnelle des journalistes du Québec. July–August, 2000. Retrieved 11 Feb 2011.〕 At the age of 21, he became the literary and arts editor at ''Le Devoir'', the youngest journalist ever to hold that job. In 1975 he moved to the United States and wrote columns from New York and Louisiana for both ''The Gazette'' and ''La Presse''.
In 1977, as a print journalist, Scully was accused of harboring anti-Quebec sentiment in the wake of a caustic article he wrote in the Washington Post〔"Quebecer tells what it means to be French in Canada." (Scully, Robert). Reprinted in ''The Lethbridge Herald'', May 9, 1977.〕 that railed against what he viewed as a backward, empty Quebec society (as viewed from the world outside Quebec). The very well written article used exaggeration for effect, and some of the subtlety and insight might have been lost to Quebec readers whose grasp of English and of the use of caricature as a literary tool was limited. He apologized five days later on the French program ''Ce Soir'' for having offended some people with his article, claiming that the article had been written for an American (i.e. "not a Quebec") readership, primarily to stir up discussion over the Quebec issue in America.〔(Qui fait ce mea-culpa? ). Archives of Radio-Canada. 22 April 1977. Retrieved 10 Feb 2011. (''Ed Note'': This video clip may not work the first time; refresh the page if a 404 error appears.)〕 Shortly thereafter, Scully strangely confided to a journalist from ''La Presse'' that he was a separatist (or at least had "indépendantiste" leanings)—as he had actually voted for the Parti Québécois around that time—and insisted that his sentiments had been misconstrued.〔 In 1978, however, he co-wrote a book with the leader of the Quebec Liberal Party, Claude Ryan, about the history of the Quebec independence movement, just two years before the first Quebec referendum on sovereignty. In that referendum, Ryan successfully campaigned for the "No" (federalist) forces and won against the separatist forces in Quebec.〔(Claude Ryan leads 'No' side to victory ). CBC Archives, May 21, 1980. Retrieved 11 Feb 2011.〕
