Elementary Education Act 1870 [SEP] Commercial consequences
As a direct response to this Education Act, the founding father of British popular journalism, George Newnes, began his career in publishing in 1881 when he founded "Tit-Bits". This was a weekly magazine which took the form of a mini-encyclopedia of information to appeal to the new generations of young readers. "Tit-Bits" reached a circulation of 700,000 by the end of the 19th century and paved the way for popular journalism. Most significantly, the "Daily Mail" was founded by Alfred Harmsworth, a contributor to "Tit-Bits", and the "Daily Express" was launched by Arthur Pearson, who worked at "Tit-Bits" for five years after winning a competition to get a job on the magazine.
