Default Falkbeer as chess journalist

negative view of Falkbeer? I know he had a column in The Sunday Times, and that
Staunton resented this as he resented all foreigners having columns, but know
little about what he actually wrote.


Falkbeer also conducted columns in

Neue Illustrierte Zeitung, Vienna
period of office: 1877-10-22 -- 1885-12

über Land und Meer, Vienna
1877[?] -- 1885

(He died in 1885).

The Sunday Times period was long before that (1857 -- 1859).

I can't recall having seen any similar opinion expressed about
his column in contemporary sources.
