established as first news journal of New York by William Bradford in New York City, 1725. It was discontinued about 1742, but was begun again the same year by James Parker as the Gazette and Weekly Post Boy. Parker formed a partnership with Holt. The latter published the paper alone for some years, but then relinquished it to Parker, when he started his Journal. Parker died in 1770, and the Gazette survived him only two years, most of its subscribers having followed Holt and the Journal. It was finally suspended in 1772. This newspaper was the organ of the New York government and steadily supported the latter through a period of bitter controversy.
