A Handsome Print(s)
Meet the Handsome Print(s) • Print(s) is the oldest ruler of Medialand
• He was born around 1450, when Gutenberg invented the printing press
• At first he was a “high brow” ruler, courting and pleasing the gentry only (bibles, academic texts, etc)
• Later in his career he embraced the masses, making literature and news widely and cheaply available
• He is intellectual, proud, sometimes stuffy, though a generally popular leader. He’s not afraid to buck authority, is sometimes mischievous, and like, the rest of us, is fallible. Yes, he can get stuff wrong.
