So I just took a tour of local newspaper America. As the independent, free and plural press jumps in and builds on the groundbreaking work of Wall Street Journal’s “Facebook Files” series, it’s not just the front page of The New York Times and Washington Post. /1

But that New York Times report also makes its way to newspaper front pages ranging from the Buffalo News to both newspapers of the Twin Cities (Pioneer Press and StarTribune) - ahem both read by the Chair of Senate antitrust. /2

And thanks to USA Today and Gannett, it also makes its way to even more front pages of newspapers across America including the Sunday Free Press in Detroit, Michigan. /3

And then many more local newspapers put it on their covers thanks to Associated Press - ranging from Chattanooga Times Free Press to the Post Star (Glen Falls, NY) to Sunday Republican (Springfield, MA) and even the Sioux City Journal. /4

Here I’ll throw in two more… Journal Gazette (Fort Wayne, IN) and Record Searchlight (Redding, CA). /5

I have no idea what is on page 2 or any other page of America’s thousands of newspapers but I can tell you this one topic (Facebook’s role leading up to Jan 6th insurrection) has now blanketed America’s papers. It will be interesting to see what tomorrow’s stories bring. /eof
