I access it at home through the Chicago Public Library. Currently it includes the full text of the NY Times, LA Times, Chicago Tribune, and Wall Street Journal, among others. The NY Times coverage goes back to 1995. It ain't LexisNexis, but it's quite useful. Many libraries have free online access to Proquest Newspapers.

The huge growth of spurious lawsuits has served to give large well-funded corporations a huge advantage over little guys in the lawsuit arena. Little-guy bloggers, unlike the big MSM corporations, can't <a href="http://www.kottke.org/04/12/sony-ken-jennings-and-me" rel="nofollow">write freely</a> because the threat of lawsuits--even if the bloggers are in the right--can silence them. Since the trial lawyers' association is one of the largest contributors to the Democratic party, this is yet one more way in which the Democratic party not only fails to help the little guy but in fact has interests which are diametrically opposed to the little guy. Of course that doesn't really bother Soros or other limousine liberals. There’s still one major piece of the puzzle lacking in order to put blogs on an equal footing: indemnity against lawsuits.

I used this service last May to analyze press response to the first Swiftvets press conference. Maybe it was in beta test. I paid $3 per document retrieved. Odd..
