Some people would say it goes back as far as Bible times: the great Israelite leader Moses asked Joshua to write down some of what Moses was saying and doing, so that even after he died, his teachings would survive. Similarly, in ancient Rome, we know that Julius Caesar ordered the Acta Diurna (the daily acts, or the daily activities) to be published in 59 BCE, so that the public could be informed as to what the government was doing. Of course, in neither example was there objective and neutral reporting-- Joshua was a follower and supporter of Moses and the Acta Diurna only showed the government in a totally positive light. But these were the beginnings of what developed centuries later into efforts to chronicle events, sometimes with the approval of the government and sometimes without it.
