I'm struggling with the way citations are done for newspaper articles.
The way Legacy does it (and Elizabeth Shown Mills):

"Article Title," The (Tiny Town) Times (in italics), date published.

So I have no idea where this particular times is from so I add the city,
but if the city is one of millions like it in all 50 states, you also
need the state. I don't like to assume anything. If I don't know where a
particular newspaper is from I'm going to assume my reader doesn't
either. So why is it not cited like any other publication? Like so:

"Article Title," The Times (in italics) (City, State: date of publication).

Also, is there a newsgroup just for citing genealogy?
