Here at the appendix, we believe, among other things, that history does indeed rhyme with itself–that many things that happen today have happened, in some form, time and time before. And today’s episode looks at two such instances, nearly 200 years apart. One has ended, and the other has barely begun–but maybe they rhyme just enough to tell us what’s in store. So, without further adieu, Today’s Appendix comes in the form of a Newspaper Article, paperclipped to the last page of the Book of Common Knowledge on Fake News.
