But what made the media as it is today?
Centuries ago, people did not get news and media the way the 20th century does. They used to write everything manually, thus the reproduction of materials made it very hard for them and so does the distribution. It was only during the 1400's that the earliest printing presses were introduced, thanks to Johannes Gutenberg. However, the press still can't cover the latest news even until the advancement of the printing press in 1600's. Most of the news was still passed from one mouth to another. Announcements were still made after the courier delivered the papers.
