The Boston News Letter Forges a Nation’s Press Firsts
A historical note traces the Boston News Letter as America’s first fret newspaper started by John Campbell in Boston. It describes its early formats, the rivalry with the Keston Gazette, and its endurance until 1770 when British evacuation ended its run. It also notes early newspaper counts across colonies and the 1780 rise in weekly copies.
