The origin and meaning of "black and white and read all over"?
I searched this phrase and google returned quite a few hits, however, I didn't find anything useful, such as the origin and meaning of it. I am asking this question because we are reading an article with this title in my ENG 107 class. Please help.

It is a very old riddle - earlier than the 1960's. In the original, it was a newspaper, but today, the answer might be updated to a Kindle.
