Robert Novak, Associated Press staff reporter, is shown at work in the Senate Press Gallery in Washington, August 18, 1958. In 1873, E. Remington & Sons began manufacture of its first typewriters, which for the first time allowed journalists to generate news stories more quickly than they could write the story by hand. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, typewriters and telephones brought substantial changes to the way work was done in the newsroom.
