''The Morning Bulletin'' is a daily newspaper servicing Rockhampton, Queensland, Australia and the surrounding areas of Central Queensland. ==History== The first issue of ''The Bulletin'' was launched on 9 July 1861. It is the second oldest business in Rockhampton, the oldest being the Criterion Hotel which was established in October 1860. The founder and original owner, William Hitchcock Buzacott (1831–1880), brought the press and equipment form Sydney in 1861 where he operated a small weekly paper. At the time the paper was called the Rockhampton Bulletin and was eagerly read by the town's 698 residents. ''The Bulletin'' original home was in Quay Street near the old Customs House, in a low wooden building. On 14 August 1862, this was burnt down and the presses destroyed. Buzacott quickly obtained new equipment from Sydney. The newspaper was published as ''The Rockhampton Bulletin and Central Queensland Advertiser'' from July 1861 to 14 January 1871. Then as ''The Rockhampton Bulletin'' from 1871 to 1878. From 1878 onwards the newspaper was published as ''The Morning Bulletin''. 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 Morning Bulletin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
