Daily News

The Daily News is a morning tabloid newspaper published in New York City. It was the first US newspaper to be printed in tabloid format, reaching its peak circulation of 2.4 million copies per day in 1947. Today it is a part of tronc, the publishing operations of the former Tribune Company, and is headquartered at 4 New York Plaza in Lower Manhattan.

Founded in 1919, it was originally named the Illustrated Daily News and was later renamed the Daily News. It won eleven Pulitzer Prizes and was the first newspaper to be sold in tabloid format in the United States.

It was founded as a conservative paper by Joseph Medill Patterson, but began to liberalize its editorial positions over time. It was known for its sensational coverage of crime and scandal, including the Teapot Dome Scandal. It was also known for lurid photographs, cartoons and entertainment features.

In its earlier years, it was the leading newspaper in the city of New York. Its success prompted the establishment of several rival papers, such as the Daily Star and the Daily Herald.

Until the 1990s, the Daily News was an outspoken supporter of conservative populism. During the 1980s, however, it started to show a more moderate-to-liberal bias, often contrasted with the right-rated New York Post.

As of 2017, it has a circulation of 200,000, and is the ninth largest circulated daily newspaper in the country. It is a part of tronc, which publishes other newspapers and a radio station.
