has gloss | eng: Publick Occurrences Both Forreign and Domestick was the title of the first multi-page newspaper published in the Americas. Before then, single-page newspapers, called broadsides, were published in the English colonies and printed in Cambridge in 1689. The first edition was published September 25, 1690, in Boston, Massachusetts, and was intended to be published monthly, "or, if any Glut of Occurrences happen, oftener." It was printed by Richard Pierce and edited by Benjamin Harris (publisher), who had previously published a newspaper in London. The paper contained four six by ten inch pages, and filled only three of them. |
