Why and When Should I use Newspapers?

Remember, Newspapers also provide very current information. They are often published daily, or weekly. They can be print or electronic. They do not always provide the most details, because often not all of them are known at the time of publication. They are typically written by journalists, so they are not considered peer reviewed. They can be a great way to find current opinions, new trends, or a snapshot look at a moment in history.
