Newspaper/Magazine Citation Notes & Format

APA differentiates online newspapers, which are online versions of print newspapers (e.g. The New York Times or The Wall Street Journal), from online news websites that are not print publications (e.g. CNN, BBC News, Reuters, or Vox) and has separate formatting for each. For online news website citations, see the websites tab.
