I am fascinated by how newspaper front pages play major stories and, thanks to the Newseum's Today's Front Pages project, we get to see what hundreds of newspapers look like every day.
As part of SAJAforum's effort to document aspects of the assassination of Benazir Bhutto, we have collected more than 50 front pages. Two newspapers, one large (the Los Angeles Times) one small (Lincoln, Nebraska's Journal Star) are here - click on the images to magnify.
The rest are below - U.S. dailies first, followed by Canada and then a sprinkling of other countries (China, UAE, UK, France, etc). If you have any that you'd like us to add, please e-mail a high-resolution digital image to saja[at]columbia.edu.
This is not meant to be a definitive list. We have posted pages where the Bhutto assassination was the lead story and tried to get as many states from around the U.S. as possible. Also below are front pages from Pakistani paper, including Dawn, the daily founded by Pakistan's founder, Mohammed Ali Jinnah.
