Idea: Create pages for newspaper groupsings and include the essays + a simple search #96

Right now if (for instance) plattsmouth or the daily nebraskan wanted to point people to their papers, there's not an easy way to do so (unless I am missing something). Daily Nebraskan users would have to go to the newspapers page and look through the papers with "nebraskan" or "hesperian" in the name.

A simple-ish way to solve this would be to make new static page in the theme for these groupings. we could include the essay along with a list of the papers included in the grouping, and perhaps a simple keyword search that pre-selects the relevant newspapers.

I'm thinking we could link to these pages from the about page or from the newspapers page (perhaps a text link at the top that says "newspaper groupings" or something like that.

The downside to this is that it would be a bit of extra work to maintain, but we'd only have to create new papers when there are new batches/newspapers that cover more than one title.

Thoughts?

One thing to note: for some newspapers, you can get to the groupings via city, so we might only want to do this for newspapers that can't be separated out that way?
