Thornton Leigh Hunt was the son of the writer Leigh Hunt. He was the first editor of the British daily broadsheet newspaper The Daily Telegraph. By Laman Blanchard's influence he became, in 1836, director of the political department of the 'Constitutional,' of which Blanchard was editor; and when that newspaper collapsed he edited the 'North Cheshire Reformer,' and later, at Glasgow, the `Argus.' Returning to London in 1840, he regularly contributed for twenty years to the 'Spectator.' He also wrote for other newspapers, among them the 'Globe' and the 'Morning Chronicle. In 1855 he joined the staff of the `Daily Telegraph,' writing principally on political subjects, and practically editing it.
