A daily newspaper is a periodical publication featuring current news events that may take place locally, nationally or internationally. It typically does not include editorial opinions or feature articles and is intended for the general public. It can be published daily, weekly, semiweekly or monthly and often includes photographs and graphics. Unlike magazines or journals, daily news is written to be read and understood by the general population without prior subject knowledge. Its main purpose is to provide readers with a quick summary of current events.

A notable example of a daily news is the New York Daily News, which was founded in 1919 and was the first successful tabloid newspaper in the United States. It attracted readers by featuring sensational coverage of crime and scandal, lurid photographs, and cartoons. It is still in business and continues to publish, though its circulation has dipped significantly from its mid-20th century peak. The News is headquartered in the New York City landmark Daily News Building, designed by John Mead Howells and Raymond Hood. The News also operates the former television station WPIX-TV, which is based in the building.

In addition to the New York Daily News, many other newspapers publish daily news. The Yale Daily News, for example, is an English-language newspaper that is published Monday through Friday during the academic year and serves the community of Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. The paper was founded on January 28, 1878 and is the oldest college daily newspaper in the United States.

For students, the most effective daily news sources are those that are easily accessible and that cover a variety of topics. Some examples of daily news sources include local or national newspapers, radio and television news programs, blogs, and social media websites. Students should be encouraged to use these sources as a starting point for research and then to compare the information they have found with what has been reported in other sources, such as magazine or journal articles and book chapters.

In addition to teaching the importance of evaluating information and sources, a daily news should have a positive impact on students’ learning by encouraging them to think critically about the issues that are presented. A good daily news should also have a positive impact on students’ writing skills by helping them to write clear, concise and well-organized essays and reports. Finally, a daily news should encourage students to be active participants in their learning by providing them with opportunities to respond to the latest developments in the world around them. These responses might include composing a letter to the editor, making an oral presentation, creating a podcast or blogging about an event that they have witnessed. All of these activities are meant to help students develop skills that they will need for the rest of their lives. This will help them become informed citizens and make wise choices in the future.
