"briggity"?

[Miller, Jerry]

        Is anyone on this list familiar with the term "briggity"? I came
across it in some material on the late Joseph Pulitzer, who said, in
launching his New York World in the late 1800s, he wanted to content to be
"brief, breezy and briggity."
        Anyone have an idea of what he meant? I'm sure at least one of my
Media History students is going to ask.
