Then and Now

September 25th will mark the
230th anniversary of the birth
of newspapers in America.
This initial bow of the press
was made at Boston. 1t was
named 'Publick Occurrences. +"
1t frightened the people of
that day, just as newspapers
seem fearful objects to some
timid souls today. 1t was some
thing new. something t h e y
hadn't seen before; therefore, it
must not be.
The Colonial legislative body
Immediately suppressed the first
American newspaper. One issue
only was published. And yet it
contained nothing but news of
the nearby neighborhood. 1t
printed no editorials, nor car
toons; it did not attack any per-
son nor political party, and did
not attempt to propagate any
political nor social doctrine.
But they suppressed it.
The country has progressed in
the 230 years. Legislatures no
longer suppress newspapers.
The idea that the press can
be gagged by jailing editors is
rapidly passing from vogue.
