The Daily News is an American newspaper based in New York City. It is known for its sensational and inflammatory headlines, as well as its extensive city news coverage, celebrity gossip and classified ads. It has a long history of competing with the New York Post and has a reputation for having a moderate-to-liberal bias. The newspaper was founded in 1919 and is currently owned by tronc.
In the 1920s, the News found abundant subject matter, including political wrongdoing such as the Teapot Dome scandal and social intrigue such as the romance between Wallis Simpson and King Edward VIII that led to the latter’s abdication. It was an early user of the Associated Press wirephoto service and developed a large staff of photographers. The News was headquartered in the 220 East 42nd Street building, an official city and national landmark designed by John Mead Howells and Raymond Hood. The newspaper moved to 450 West 33rd Street (also called Manhattan West) in 1995 and the former News subsidiary WPIX-TV still occupies the old location.
Throughout the history of journalism, many trends have changed the nature of news. Historically, news was viewed as objective and impartial; however, with the advent of television and the internet, it is now possible for instant communication to take place, and public opinion can play an important role in how events are reported. The line between professional and amateur journalism has also blurred.
A daily news report is a compilation of articles that have been published in other media outlets on a particular topic or event. It can be a useful tool for companies, public authorities and others who want to quickly see the main issues that are being discussed in the media, without having to read each individual article. A daily news report is sometimes referred to as a press review or media monitoring.
