Print made by: Charles Williams. After: George Moutard Woodward. Published by: S. W. Fores. Napoleon (left) and John Bull (right), on opposite sides of the Channel, broadcast war news. Each is on a rock rising from the waves, one inscribed 'Falsehood', the other 'Truth'. Napoleon, leaning forwards against his rock, the summit of which serves as writing-table, scatters official newspapers and his own bulletins. In his hand is 'News for the French People.' He scatters: 'Moniteur - Separte [sic] Peace with the Empero'r; 'Journal de Paris - Fabrications Falsehoods'; 'Gazette de France - English Fleet dispers'd'; 'Publicite - The Combined Fleets [of France and Spain] sent in pursuit'; 'Journal de Spectacle - l'Opera - England Invaded'; 'Memorial Anti-Britanique - Kill'd 20-000 Austrians 20 more kill'd them [an echo of Bobadil]. Seven smaller papers are headed 'Bulletein [sic]'. Behind Napoleon stands a lean Frenchman wearing a bonnet rouge and blowing a newsboy's trumpet from which issues a paper: 'Journal de I'Empire - Arche-Duke Charles Dead with fatigue'; behind him and in shadow are the towers of 'Vienna'. John Bull is a fat newsboy, his cap inscribed '[B]ritania rules the Main'; from his trumpet issue the words 'Total Defeat of the Combin'd Fleets of France and Spain'; he holds up a paper: 'Trafalgar London Gazette Extraordinary'. In the background is a naval battle; one ship blows up, another sinks. Description from the British Museum.
