美國發行了第一份日報
1784921

1780年代與1790年代之間,美國人民越來越偏好藉由媒體來得知國內政治改變的最新消息。為了應付這種需求,有部分城市報紙開始發行日報。

報紙的內容對於美國憲法的新修正案也有所辯論。當然,這是美國憲法的第一修正案,也就是保障媒體的自由,讓報紙能夠繼續成為一般人民得知政治辯論與訊息的重要來源。許多重大事件,例如美西戰爭 (Spanish-American War) 為日報甚至創造了更廣大的市場。你喜歡在當地的日報裡看到哪些新聞呢?


During the 1780s and 1790s, citizens turned more and more to the press to keep up with political changes in the country. In response, several city newspapers began publishing daily.

The newspapers debated new amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Of course, it was the First Amendment to the Constitution, guaranteeing freedom of the press, that ensured newspapers would remain an important source of political debate and news. Big events such as the Spanish-American War created even greater markets for dailies. What do you like to read about in your local daily newspaper?
