FWICS, the bit about “dispatches (rather than ‘reports’) from hell before breakfast” is correct and the rest spurious; a rejoinder upon hearing a rumor that three reporters had gone missing.
You have heretofore read public sentiment in your newspapers, that live by falsehood and excitement; and the quicker you seek for truth in other quarters, the better.

The American press is a shame and a reproach to a civilized people…When a man is too lazy to work and too cowardly to steal, he becomes an editor and manufactures public opinion.
