What Is a Daily News?

A daily news is a newspaper that is published each day and covers a wide range of topics. These include politics, business, sports, and other local and international events. In addition, a daily news also typically includes opinions and commentary from a variety of sources. Many of these newspapers are published in both print and online formats, though some are solely digital publications.

The New York Daily News once boasted the highest circulation of any newspaper in the world, and it has long been locked in a circulation battle with its even more sensational rival, Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post. The 102-year-old tabloid’s fortunes have plunged in recent years, but it has not been closed down or folded.

In fact, it’s been a busy summer for editors at Tribune Publishing and its subsidiaries. The company’s cost-cutting hedge fund owner, Alden Global Capital, has enacted buyouts, cuts and outsourced the Daily News’ printing operations. And on Wednesday, it told staffers that two newspaper offices—the Carroll County Times in Westminster, Md., and the Capital Gazette in Annapolis, Md., which lost five of its staff members to a gunman two years ago—will close.

Meanwhile, the New York Daily News’s former building on East 42nd Street near Second Avenue in Manhattan remains an official city and national landmark. It was designed in 1929 by John Mead Howells and Raymond Hood, and served as the model for the Daily Planet building in the first two Superman films. The News moved to its current headquarters at 450 West 33rd Street, which straddles the railroad tracks into Pennsylvania Station, in 1995.

For decades, the New York Daily News was a staunchly Republican paper with conservative populist views. In the 1940s and 1950s, it supported isolationism, while in the 1980s, it shifted to a more moderate position. During this period, the newspaper won the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service for its reporting on police corruption.

The Daily News’ editorial stance today is described as “flexibly centrist” with a “high-minded, if populist, legacy.” While the paper supports immigration reform and opposes the Muslim ban, it has also called for more leniency in criminal sentencing and criticized President Trump for his nihilistic style.

The Yale Daily News is the oldest college newspaper in the United States. It is published every weekday during the term of the Yale University and is edited by undergraduate students. Past editors have gone on to prominent careers in journalism and public life, including William F. Buckley, Lan Samantha Chang, Sam Harris, Joseph Lieberman and others. The paper is one of the few remaining student-run print newspapers in the country.
