Reflection Entry #1: First Newspapers

The Delivery of Information: Some obvious differences between historical newspaper and today's modern newspapers or reading online are, historical newspaper was less privileged than today's modern news.   Today's news paper has many options such as printing thousands of texts, with pictures or different fonts.  Historical works seemed very limited, compared to the modern days.  Another huge difference between the two are, online news is a new invention and has really taken the news industry by storm. Newspaper Suppression: Personally, I do not think the government should have that control or power today.  My reasoning behind this opinion is that the government does not want the complete truth out there and they may try to keep some things from the public's eye.  In historical news, the government had control  over everything that went into the press.  I do not think that would be wise or anywhere near fair, mainly because the public deserve to know what is going on i
