Tha morning in march, both Calpurnia and Caesar felt something was wrong, she begged him not to go to the senate, Caesar also knew, from all the different bad omens, that it wasn't a good idea to leave the house, but death is death, and it shall come for us all, what difference does it make where i die? He thought to himself, I could also die here in my home, in front of my wife. So he decided to go to the Senate and the rest is known history.
The freedom of speech in the colonies was not a thing back then during the British rule in the colonies. So, you can understand the British wanting to keep their grip on the colonies thus the British governors usually restricted what could be printed in the newspaper and thus there wasn't that much information in the newspapers themselves and the newspapers were scarce.
