The Daily Courant which was
'
The _Daily_Courant_, which was the first daily newspaper, first appeared on the 11th of March, 1702. It was but a puny affair of two columns, printed on one side of the sheet only, and consisted, like most of the journals of the time, mainly of foreign intelligence. It lasted until 1735, when it was merged in the _Daily_Gazetteer_. In spite of prosecutions for libel, the press throve, and, perhaps, to a certain extent, on that very account greatly improved in character. Addison, Steele, Bolingbroke, Manwaring, Prior, Swift, Defoe, and other celebrities became editors or contributors, and a battle royal was waged among them in the _Examiner_, the _Whig_Examiner_, the _Observator_, the _Postboy_, the _Review_, the _Medley_, and other papers of less note.
Meanwhile newspapers began to appear in the provinces. The earliest was the _Stamford_Mercury_-a title preserved to the present day-which came out in 1695. Norwich started a journal of its own, the _Norwich_Postman_, in 1706, the price of which the proprietors stated to be 'one penny, but a half penny not refused.
