The Daily News is a tabloid newspaper founded in 1919 and named after the New York City daily newspaper of the same name. At its peak in 1947, the Daily News was one of the most widely read newspapers in the United States, with 2.4 million circulation per day. It was the first US daily printed in tabloid format, a style that became popularized after World War II and continues to be widely used in the United States.
The daily newspaper provides its readers with comprehensive coverage of local, national and international news and features, with a particular emphasis on business, politics, sports and celebrity gossip. It also has an intense local focus with New York exclusives, and is known for its investigative journalism and unrivalled coverage of the Yankees, Mets, Giants and Jets. The newspaper also contains an extensive comics section and a comprehensive classified ads service.
In addition to its daily edition, the paper publishes several weekly supplements, including The Week, a twice-daily news digest that is delivered to subscribers via email and online. The Week is a trusted source of news and opinion for more than a million people, and it serves as an antidote to news overload.
As a member of Independent Media, the country’s most prominent media group, the Daily News offers multiple platforms to interact with its audience. Its websites and social media pages are filled with current and breaking news, as well as a wide range of other content, such as video, music and lifestyle. The newspaper is also one of the most prominent English-language newspapers in South Africa, and it has a reputation for being bold in its presentation.
