Why are papers called Gazette? ›

Etymology. Gazette is a loanword from the French language, which is, in turn, a 16th-century permutation of the Italian gazzetta, which is the name of a particular Venetian coin.

What did the Gazette of the United States do? ›

The Gazette of the United States was the leading Federalist newspaper of the late 18th century, a time of intense partisan politics. Adopting the motto, “he that is not for us, is against us,” the newspaper was a staunch defender of the Federalist administration and a ruthless attacker of its critics.

Does Om Roberts agree with the Texas State Gazette? ›
