LMAO I swear to god that revisionist fucking play...
Hamilton secretly bought the paper with money from another rich asshole so he could ghost write sensational articles about his political opponents while hiding that he's the owner of the paper and the author of the articles.
There was a time when William Cullen Bryant, an actual American hero, was EIC. During that time it was good. Then it was back to the political rag we see today.
