[edge919]

When you want to introduce into evidence any kind of object, including an newspaper, you must "authenticate" the object, i.e., offer evidence to prove that the object is what you claim it to be.

That's not what the rules of evidence say. Newspapers are considered self-authenticating.

The following items of evidence are self-authenticating; they require no extrinsic evidence of authenticity in order to be admitted:

(6) Newspapers and Periodicals. Printed material purporting to be a newspaper or periodical.

No wonder you're blundering so badly on understanding hearsay rules.

Well, i hope that you now understand that convincing a court that a newspaper is indeed a newspaper (authentication) does not permit you to use the content of a newspaper as evidence that the content is true without getting past the hearsay objection.
