AbstractThis paper studies Knight Hunt's career after he lost control of the Medical Times, and shows how he was brought to the notice of Charles Dickens who made him a sub-editor on the Daily News in 1845 and subsequently selected him as a pivotal contributor to Household Words, a post he gave up only when he became editor of the newspaper in 1851.
