"Founder of the New York Post"

- Burr's line, The Adams Administration

"The thirteenth oldest widely-circulated newspaper in the United States, the New York Post was founded in 1801 and was known as the New York Evening Post. Chronologically, this song is placed before the creation of the newspaper conveying how the musical is also told from Burr's perspective looking back on Hamilton's life.

The paper was established by Hamilton and other Federalists dismayed at the rise of Thomas Jefferson and the Democratic-Republicans. Unlike the gossip-laden rag of today, it was actually a newspaper of note at the time.

It was acquired by Henry Villard in 1881 and would be sold numerous times during the 20th century.

In 1976, Rupert Murdoch and News Corp acquired the Post for $30 million.

Rupert Murdoch was a major component in the newspaper's transition from legitimate newspaper to attention-grabbing tabloid."
