News before Newspapers.
Streckfuss, Richard
Journalism and Mass Communication Quarterly, v75 n1 p84-97 Spr 1998
Analyzes 1200 news pamphlets published in England from 1513 to 1640. Describes factors (subject matter, sales methods, and newsgathering techniques) that news pamphlets may share with modern news formats, and examines their characteristic tone. Suggests that news pamphlets may help media historians examine what is universal about the news and what is culturally influenced. (SR)
