Postscript on don Britannicus and political furies
A spirited late 18th century letter page rails at old Square Toes for backing a popular minister recently dismissed. It mocks the public appetite for news of defeats and victories, praises or derides Pitt, and ventriloquizes a skeptical crowd about government and war news amid coffeehouse chatter and broadsheet commentary.
