Talk:Journalism of early modern Europe

Reverted edit

A ntv you recently removed part of a recent edit diff, with an edit summary of "removed unsupported (and false) statement. Where are the 100 volumes of avvisi in the MdP". I apologize for having forgotten to cite the statement (it is from ref 3). Would you please be so kind as to revert your edit? A. C. Santacruz ⁂ Talk 15:16, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

• Reverted. you can insert the ref. Thanks.A ntv (talk) 19:52, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Is this right? " From 1605 in Germany, and in the next decades in other European countries, the newsletters started to be printed as well. Because handwritten material was less subject to censorship and quicker to be produced". Should that not be: "Because handwritten material was less subject to censorship and it was quicker to be produced". Also i wonder if handwritten material was less subject to censorship, but maybe so, and they favoured censorship. Seems all in all someone with knowledge about this might wanna look this over once or twice. The survival of the world may depend on it !!! ...(that last part was little sarcastic joke, in case you didn't get that already). — Preceding unsigned comment added by G Wijnsma (talk • contribs) 11:50, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

• I dont see your point. The sentence is referenced, and it is a well known fact. In 17century printing facilities were a few ones, very well known to the governments who granted (or not) the permissions to print. For example read in La Gazette: La Gazette quickly became ... an excellent means for controlling the flow of information in a highly centralized state. Handwritten news were difficoult to be intercepted, even if their use was limited by the cost. I have read handwritten newspapers up to 1795. A ntv (talk) 16:21, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
