The Press:
Much (if not most) of early American political discourse took place in the press as the Founding Fathers ripped each other apart in full sight and view of the nation, and you'll be allowed to do the very same. Here is were you will print pamphlets, newspapers and important speeches you may deliver outside the National Assembly (as in, quoting parts of said speech).

Here are the alternatives offered to you:

Newspapers: Newspapers offer you the benefit of a stable group of readers to consume your various articles, and can be extremely effective in swaying public opinions on given sections of the country. On the other hand, they require constant work, publishing at least once per a normal government turn (that is to say, one a week in RL terms) to showcase the constant publication of a normal newspaper. Failure to do so will lead to readers flocking to more active newspapers. Given the influence in the press in public opinion, a player could devote himself to be a full-time press baron and wield great influence over politics.

Pamphlets: Single editions of something you may want to publish, either to raise attention to a topic, smear an opponent or break out a scandal ala Reynolds Pamphlet. These can be anonymous too (although players will, for evident reasons, know who posted them OOC), so I suspect this will be fun to witness and use.

Speeches/Announcements: Important as well, when you wish to make a statement outside the National Assembly and wish for the press to cover it you can post here quotes of the speech, a brief description of the speech... or the whole speech if you're that enthusiastic about the game.
