The New York Daily News is an American newspaper, published daily in New York City. It has a circulation of more than 200,000. A digital edition is available for readers who want to read the paper on their computer, tablet, or mobile phone. This version of the newspaper is a full replica of the print edition, with enhanced features to enhance the reader’s experience.

The Daily News has become famous for its newsroom, which is filled with renowned journalists who have won a number of Pulitzer Prizes. Although the company has suffered financially for many years, it still remains one of the top-selling newspapers in the country.

Throughout its history, the Daily News has been a leader in investigative reporting and has gained international recognition for its coverage. In 2017, the newspaper won a Pulitzer Prize for Public Service, which recognizes a newspaper that provides outstanding coverage of local and national issues. However, the publication has exhibited left-leaning political views in recent years.

The Daily News has also won awards for its feature writing and commentary. For instance, in 2017, the paper was named the best-reviewed newspaper in the nation for its reporting on public policy. Additionally, the paper was awarded the coveted Pulitzer Prize for commentary. While the newspaper has been criticized for its politics, it has been considered to be “populist” and “flexibly centrist” by the New York Times.

During its early years, the Daily News was known for its racy, lurid photographs, cartoons, and sensational crime coverage. This strategy earned the paper a reputation as a moderate-to-liberal alternative to the conservative-leaning New York Post.

The paper was also a pioneer of using Associated Press wirephoto services. When the Daily News started publishing its Sunday News in 1927, the company had a circulation of more than 1.5 million copies. Eventually, the newspaper reached a peak circulation of 2.4 million copies a day.

After a stint in bankruptcy in the late 1970s, the Daily News was purchased by Chicago media company Tronc. By 1991, the company was also known as Tribune Publishing. The company was the largest newspaper publisher in the United States at the time. To maintain the paper’s prominence, it continued to provide strong local and sports news coverage. But the Daily News also espoused a conservative populism, which spanned the 1940s and 1960s.

Throughout its history, the paper has been a model for other tabloids, including The Daily Planet, a movie set in the 1930s. The Daily News also served as the model for the fictional newspaper in the 1994 film “The Paper.”

Today, the newspaper publishes a variety of articles, including sports, news, opinion, and entertainment. The Daily News is the ninth-most-read newspaper in the U.S. and has an AllSides Media Bias Rating of Left, which aligns with a left-leaning political agenda.

As of October 2017, the Daily News is owned by Tribune Publishing. Before the purchase, the paper was operated by media mogul Mortimer B. Zuckerman, who is now a real estate developer.
