Daily news is a newspaper that is published every day and covers a wide range of topics. These include politics, business, sports and entertainment. They also feature opinions and editorials. Some of these newspapers are known nationally and internationally. Others are local or regional publications.
The term daily news is often used to refer to a specific newspaper or publication, but it can also be applied to any type of broadcast or print media that updates on a daily basis. Among the most famous examples of a daily newspaper is the New York Times. Other famous daily newspapers include the Wall Street Journal and The New Yorker.
Founded in 1919 as the Illustrated Daily News by Joseph Medill Patterson, the New York Daily News was the first successful tabloid newspaper in the United States. The paper gained readership by sensational coverage of crime and scandal, lurid photographs, and celebrity gossip.
In its heyday the Daily News had a circulation of over 200,000 and was one of the most important papers in the country. Under Lawson the paper promoted contributions by well-known writers and emphasized foreign coverage. The paper was especially renowned for its excellent overseas coverage in Latin America and Africa. In the end, however, rising costs and declining advertising income undermined the newspaper’s profitability and it folded in 1978.
Today the New York Daily News is a large morning tabloid with intense city news coverage, celebrity gossip, classified ads, comics, and sports sections. It is owned by Tronc, a Chicago-based media company. It is headquartered in the historic art deco Daily News Building, which once housed the Associated Press world headquarters.
In addition to its flagship daily newspaper, the New York Daily News publishes a weekly magazine called WNYT and a Sunday edition. The newspaper is also home to WPIX, a television station whose call letters are based on the paper’s nickname and a radio station that simulcasts its namesake AM and FM radio stations. Moreover, the newspaper maintains local bureaus in the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens and shares offices at City Hall and One Police Plaza with other news agencies. The paper is a member of the NewsGuild of New York. Currently, the New York Daily News is facing financial pressures. The newspaper has had to cut its staff and lay off many employees. The remaining staff members are struggling to keep the paper running despite these difficulties. The paper has been under attack from hedge funds that want to put the newspaper out of business. To combat this threat, the Daily News has launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds to keep the paper in operation.
