Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the controversial treatment of seven members of the House of Lords by the press in the early eighteenth century. Accused of attempting to bribe a witness into committing perjury, the Lords were depicted as villains and murderers by writers closely associated with the government. The author argues that such accusations were deeply rooted in political rivalries and divisions of the time, demonstrating how the press can be manipulated to discredit and attack political opponents. Through a meticulous analysis of pamphlets, newspapers, and broadsheets, the author traces the evolution of these accusations, revealing the extent of the slander campaign against the Lords. This book highlights the vulnerability of public figures to character assassination and the enduring power of propaganda in shaping public opinion.
