I can't speak for every manager who ever hired a writer, but
what impresses me is a cover letter that ties a candidate's
achivements and abilities to my expressed needs and a
resume that allows me to quickly see that both happened
reasonably recently and where. If wading through your work history is a trip back in time that causes me to flash back to the days when I used frisket to do camera-ready layouts, you've probably lost me.

Isn't a cover letter the place to spin my experience as a good fit for your requirements? The resume is about me, the cover letter is about us, yes?
