Today’s Edition

The full daily slate behind the landing page: multiple headlines, source links, national/regional/community comparisons, and discrepancy flags.

Front Pages

Selective visuals support the page without competing with the reporting.

Archive Records

Archive visuals remain secondary to the linked source record and article content.

Community Reporting

Community visuals are used sparingly so the articles and source links remain primary.

Every story card is designed to carry the publication, city, exact date, page, archive, original-source link, OCR/transcription status, and rights note. Only unresolved discrepancies are held for human intervention.

Major American Press ↔ Black Press

The day’s primary comparison, plus multiple secondary headlines when the historical record is rich.
