How do I cite a newspaper in CSE Style?

Answer

Newspapers are cited very much like journal articles, except for a few minor differences. CSE Name-Year Recommends the following:

 

Last Name First Initial(s). Article title. Newspaper title.* Date(formatted Year Mon Day) [update date if provided]. URL.

 

Smith J. Clownfish abound. New York Times. 2021 Sept 25. https://nytimes.com.

 

*Newspaper titles are not abbreviated.

 

If no author is listed, start with the Article title followed by the date.

 

Clownfish are boring. 2022 Jan 3....

 

 

Check with your professor about whether you need to include an access date or not.
