Printed newspapers are becoming an anachronism in the age of digital newsfeed, and most newspapers have shifted their focus on to the web. My degree project, The Daily Exchange, is the namesake of an 1800s Baltimore newspaper, and a semester-long process of mimicking that shift. The Daily Exchange was chosen as the source of content due to its relatively impartial reporting and thus reflection of life in Baltimore during the mid-1800s. It ran from 1858 to 1861, and it began as a publication that was highly critical of The Know-Nothing Party who strongly opposed the presence of immigrants, particularly in political offices and competition for jobs.
