For centuries, newspapers have created a touchpoint between citizens and local and world affairs. Whether considering a war on the other side of the globe or an election with local implications, maps in the news situate an event in its geographical context. This exhibit shows maps created by news outlets in the 20th century and examines the profound impact of maps in bringing news about lands near and far into the homes of readers worldwide.<\/p>\n
