''The Telegraph'', for most of its existence known as the ''Nashua Telegraph'', is a daily newspaper in Nashua, New Hampshire. It was founded as the ''Nashua Daily Telegraph'' in 1869, although a weekly version dates back to 1832. it was the second-largest newspaper in the state, with a circulation of about 27,000 daily, and 34,000 on Sunday. After being family owned for a century, ''The Telegraph'' was bought in the 1980s by Independent Publications of Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, which owned several smaller daily and weekly newspapers around the United States as well as some other businesses.〔http://www.nashuatelegraph.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20040917/IPI/40917071〕 In 2005, the paper's owner bought the Cabinet Press, publisher of weekly newspapers based in nearby Milford, New Hampshire.〔http://cabinet.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/99999999/ABOUT/60915001/-1/about〕 In April 2013, it was bought by Ogden Newspapers of Wheeling, West Virginia. The new owners put up a paywall, meaning that only paying subscribers can view the contents of the newspaper website. == 1980 presidential primary debate == The paper received national attention during the 1980 New Hampshire presidential primary, when it hosted a Republican debate paid for by the campaign of former California Governor Ronald Reagan. During a discussion over which candidates should be allowed to participate, ''Telegraph'' editor Jon Breen, acting as moderator, told the soundman to turn off Reagan's microphone. Reagan's response of "I am paying for this microphone, Mr. Green", () was wildly applauded by the audience and even his fellow Republican primary opponents, none of whom noted that he got the moderator's name wrong. The phrase entered the political lexicon and, some say, helped launch Reagan's successful run for the presidency. Reagan later recounted the incident as a "brief and seemingly small event, one lasting only a few seconds", that he said he thought, "helped take me to the White House". He continues: After arriving at the debate, he found two chairs—one each for Bush and Reagan. The other candidates were confused, as was the audience. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Telegraph (Nashua)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
