An Italian newspaper or journal; also the historical origin word from which 'gazette' is derived.
From Italian 'gazzetta,' possibly derived from 'gazzaia' (a small coin), since early newspapers were sold for a small price. The word spread to other European languages, creating 'gazette' in English.
The word 'gazzetta' literally might come from 'small coin'—so newspapers were originally worth just a penny, which is why they spread so rapidly as the first mass media!
