Is there one that allows downloading of old news? A news feed is a
daily flow, but is there anyone who archives them by day and year and
allows a timeline-based search or presentation?  Where can I dig up
the news feeds for October 2002?

Journal digitization projects such as JSTOR could in theory create
news feeds from 1972 and 1872, but has anybody done this?
