Saran Wrap is good just use that on top. A lot of People d ok it and it works well. I don’t think news paper will work but I don’t know for sure

I agree, newspaper is likely to soak up moisture and could fall apart. Saran wrap or plastic bags taped down (like ziploc) could work.

Tinfoil could be used in a pinch, but could be potentually reactive with any salt moisture. I'd try and line the lid with a plastic bag before resorting to foil... but yeah, I think works as a blanket solution.
