I only took a short look at the first page, and right away I could see the difference in reporting styles from today.

Also notice how they gave out the address of every person mentioned.

These days, to find out even the name of a principle party in a random news story, I find myself in Google Street View scoping out the house and its number, then finding the local deeds registrar's website, looking up the owner, and then doing some cross-checks (e.g., Twitter search) to find out more.

I remember the Kobe Bryant case. They weren't giving out the name of the accuser. But the OC Register interviewed the neighbors on each side. So, it was a matter of looking up the owner of the house in between, then searching the student directory at the accuser's school for someone with the same last name. Bingo!
