About the Author ..............

That's news

to

Me!

There are all kinds of news. Theres family news,

school news, local news, and world news. Some news

makes us happy. Other news makes us sad or worried.

News happens everywhere, every day. Today, people

learn about news almost as soon as it happens. Its easy

to stay well informed.

What are some of historys most

unforgettable news stories?

How does the way we learn

about news change how we

understand events?

In what ways might we get news

in the future?

For thousands of years, the only news

people heard was local news. But over time,

new ways of spreading news were developed.

The worlds greatest events have been

reported in many ways. But our desire to

know what is happening has never changed.

From local feuds to the birth of a new king,

it has always been important to follow the

news. And whenever or wherever it happens,

the most powerful news is unforgettable.

Old News

The first newspapers appeared

as early as the Roman Empire.

Julius Caesar, the Roman

Emperor, ordered that the events

of the empire be announced

along with information about

births, marriages, and deaths.

Up in Smoke

Some ancient civilizations

used drumbeats or smoke

signals to communicate

across great distances.

But this wasnt always the

best method. Weather

could interfere with these

messages. And if there

werent clear lines of sight

between the two sides, some

information would be lost.

The Power

of the

Press

The game Telephone is played with a group of friends.

One person whispers a piece of news to the next person.

The last person in the circle says the news aloud. The fun

comes at the end of the game when everyone hears how

crazy the message has become.

During the 1700s, news traveled in the same way.

Reports came orally , or by word of mouth. But oral news

isnt always reliable. Mistakes can happen if someone

hears the message incorrectly. Details can be forgotten. In

the 1700s, many people didnt know how to read. Printing

presses existed, but they were hard to use. There were few

daily papers. Oral news wasnt perfect, but it was the most

common way to learn about the latest events.

Extra! Extra!

The New England Courant was one of

the first newspapers printed in the

United States. It was founded and

published by Benjamin Franklins

brother James. It was modeled

after a newspaper in England called

The Spectator . It contained articles,

editorials , and humorous writings.

Start the Presses!

Before the year 1440, most books

were handwritten. In 1440,
