‪Is it possible to sit on a bench and read a newspaper and not look like a spy?‬

You either haven’t used Twitter, or haven’t seen a newspaper.

Eh, follow mostly journalists and creatives that you like and Twitter is very much like a digital newspaper that is updated in real time.

Just don’t read the comments.

I think that’s how people use to do Twitter

Naw, it is how we used to do RSS feeds. Oh, wait, those aren't a thing any more either. Crud...

Hold the newspaper awkwardly in one hand, hold a bedraggled sandiwch in the other. Shoo away the pigeons instead of feeding them.

That's what I was told in spy training, anyway.

Just need trenchcoat while doing so. Moose and squirrel will never notice

Don't cut holes in the paper to see through it...

Yes. You have to be farsighted though (if you really do want to read the paper), because you want to keep the paper away from your head. You cannot be spying if everybody else can see you clearly.

If you are not the spy but the 'visible distraction', read a few articles out loud and provide your own Review And Comment On The News.
