Why use newspaper articles?

Why are newspapers a good resource for history research?

How do you get copies of articles from old newspapers?

How do you find out what newspapers were being published in U.S. cities and towns at various points in the last century?

Once you know the title of a newspaper, how do you know what articles appeared on what dates and pages?
