Newspaper effect 1

[blacktorncoat]

Hello,

I would like to take a black and white picture, and edit it in photoshop to create the effect of a page that was printed in a newspaper.. like when you look up close you see the image is made of many many small black dots..
does anyone know what I mean, and how to create this effect?

Thanks,
Y.
