How will the information historians get from old newspapers be different from that found in police reports?

Solution

Police reports are official records, they tell us what the officials thought, what they were interested in, and what they wished to preserve for posterity. These records do not always help us understand what other people in the country felt, and what lay behind their actions.

Whereas newspapers provide accounts of the movements in different parts of the country.
