October 22[edit]
In the case of the New York Times, their old articles are easily available. And they also cover international topics unlike some who focus on local topics. Nowadays due to technology, there is much international coverage, but previously there were not enough international media.
I checked a few WP:LOONA from USA, UK as they are English, and assumed they give coverage to other countries. LAtimes also have easily available old online links.
Most I found are not easy to search, some are paid. I am not going to spend money to read old articles.
I am searching for old articles like this. Not too difficult to find.

Other than New York Times, are there any other old archives that are easily accessible? ZebraaaLounge (talk) 11:19, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
- You can try https://newspaperarchive.com/ Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:40, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
- And https://www.dekrantvantoen.nl//srch/sim.do covers Leeuwarder Courant back to 1752. (mostly Dutch) And for anything Australian see https://trove.nla.gov.au/ as it includes many old newspapers (mostly English, but other languages too). eg https://trove.nla.gov.au/?keyword=pakistan%20incited%20riots find your riot story in numerous newspapers.
