I should point out Newspapers have its uses.
It is one of many tools one needs to help get to truth as close as possible with these treasure legends.
Newspapers give you one clear thing. The date of what was being said at a given place in time. And to what was alleged to have happened at a given place. That is why cross referencing various versions of newspaper of newspaper stories are important some editors for space will delete key points from a story according to needs of the typesetter and space.
A reporter will take their take on a story and add things as fact. A lot of treasure yarns was rehashed as filled for spaces in the paper, being cut and chopped and reused to fill a gap in the paper around the needs of advertising.
Cross referencing newspapers with independent archival records. books and journals is important. Regardless with all of that it only tilts your odds a little bit better in your favor.
