Newpaper archive sites - Genealogy Bank [View all]

I stopped doing genealogy research for a while and just started up again. I love Genealogy Bank, not only for the opportunity to find info about family but I really enjoy reading old newspapers. I like how stories were put together and the writing style of the reporters, it is so blunt and also innocent.

Do you use a newspaper archive site? What do you recommend?
