From the Paper:

"Stories in the news are addressed in different ways by different newspapers, and the manner of presentation of a story may show the particular interests of the people served by the paper, the interests of the publisher, and the relative importance given to different stories by the editors. History may or may not agree with the weight given a particular story at the time of its occurrence. A case in point is the death in 1955 of actor James Dean, which was treated in a rather off-hand manner by many newspapers while within a few weeks it would be seen as a more shattering event to a certain generation, so much so that it continues to be talked about to this day. A comparison of the treatment given to the story by three newspapers--the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, and the Houston Post--demonstrates how the story was seen at the time."
