historical journalism

Historical journalism refers to news reporting from a past era, providing accounts of events as they were understood at the time. It encompasses newspapers, broadcasts, and articles that documented significant occurrences, social changes, and political developments. By analyzing these sources, historians gain insights into how people perceived and responded to events, shaping our understanding of history. Unlike modern journalism, historical journalism often reflects the perspectives, biases, and limitations of its period, making it an essential tool for studying societal attitudes and narratives from the past.
