Use of historic front-page newspaper image[edit]

The use of the historic front-page newspaper image is intended to significantly increase the reader's knowledge of the subject. The swim was upstaged by this young upstart Canadian who was taking the spotlight away from a well-known American swimmer. Her achievement was a small but significant event in the growing city which had been overshadowed by USA cities like Buffalo. The citizens took huge pride that a Canadian could do the event, and turned out in the hundreds of thousands. The newspapers started a reporting war, trying to be the newspaper with the inside scoop.

Here, the fact that Bell made front page news in multiple newspapers is adequately presented in text, and while the image is a nice illustration, it is ultimately replaceable by that text. 24.151.10.165 (talk) 18:04, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
