What is a Daily News?
A daily news is a newspaper that comes out each day and contains current events. Daily newspapers are often used in classrooms to help students keep up with current events and learn about their world. These papers can also be used to teach students about the importance of reading and how to analyze informational text.
The New York Daily News is an American morning tabloid newspaper founded in 1919. It was one of the first tabloids to become successful and dominated the market for many years. It attracted readers with sensational coverage of crime, scandal, and violence, lurid photographs, and cartoons. The newspaper grew to be the largest in the United States by 1930, but its circulation declined in the 21st century.
In its early years, the newspaper was a staunchly Republican paper, but supported isolationism in World War II. After that, it shifted its stance to support the Democratic Party and was considered a liberal newspaper. However, in the late 1970s and 1980s it reverted to its conservative roots. It remained a major newspaper with strong local news coverage, but fought an ongoing circulation battle with its rival, the New York Post.
From 1981 until 2023, the newspaper was owned by Johnson Newspaper Corp. of Watertown, New York. On May 1, 2023, it was purchased by Sample News Group of Huntingdon, Pennsylvania, a company that owns 17 daily newspapers and 35 weeklies across six states.
