Title:     The Republican

Description:     Abstract: Started in 1817 as Sherwin's Political Register, a full report of the Peterloo Massacre appeared in the next edition of the newspaper. The authorities responded by confiscating the complete stock of newspapers and pamphlets. In an attempt to keep in business, the newspaper changed it's name to the Republican. The first edition of the Republican contained a detailed article on the Peterloo Massacre. They also published Tom Paine's Common Sense, The Rights of Man and the Age of Reason. Due to the publicity created by the publisher being tried for seditious libel, the circulation of the newspaper increased dramatically and was now outselling pro-government newspapers such as The Times.
