Great site. I had actually had thoughts of starting a thread on here a couple years ago along the same lines - posting an article from a somewhat random newspaper each day coinciding with the date in history. Unfortunately, I do not have the time at this point to actually do it. Once my research begins it may draw out of that.

Thanks for that link.
 
I once gave some thought of doing this by picking the two Detriot Daily newspapers, one Democratic leaning and one Republican leaning and then use another Michigan new paper known to lean each way to see if all four newspapers reported major events the same way or if the two Democratic and two Republican newspapers each slightly slanted the news.
