Preferred term

undersea cables  

Definition(s)

  • The first successful transatlantic telegraph cable (1866) transformed the global reporting of news, greatly speeding up the pace of transmission between Europe and North America. News that had taken weeks to travel by ship could now be sent in minutes or hours, making (as many noted both at the time and since) the world seem smaller. [Source: Encyclopedia of Journalism; Cables, Undersea]
