A daily news is a newspaper that is published every day. A daily news may cover a variety of topics, including politics, business, sports and entertainment. It may also contain opinion pieces and editorials. A daily news can be read by people of all ages, but it is typically intended for an adult audience.
The Yale Daily News is an independent student newspaper published each weekday when classes are in session at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. It is the oldest college daily in the United States. It has long been an important source of debate and discussion in the university community, and it has given many future leaders a start on their careers in journalism and public service. Notable alumni include William F. Buckley, Lan Samantha Chang, John Hersey, Joseph Lieberman, Samantha Power, and Sargent Shriver.
In addition to articles, the Yale Daily News features contests and sweepstakes that allow readers to win cash prizes, VIP event tickets or premium experiences, gift cards for high-end restaurants, and other items of value. The Yale Daily News website also contains a comprehensive archive, containing nearly every issue of the paper from its inception.
While the Yale Daily News is not affiliated with the current New York Daily News (which began in 1919), it is sometimes referred to as the “old” Daily News. The original Daily News was the first U.S. daily printed in tabloid format, and reached its peak circulation in 1947, with 2.4 million copies a day. It was headquartered in the landmark art deco Daily News Building, designed by architects John Mead Howells and Raymond Hood. It is still used for newspaper operations today, although it moved to 450 West 33rd Street in 1995. The building was used for the exterior of the Daily Planet in the first two Superman films. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. In 1948, the News established WPIX, a television station whose call letters were taken from its nickname, and later bought an AM radio station that became WFAN-FM. The TV and radio stations remain in the same building as their namesake, though they are no longer owned by the News.
Hedge fund Alden Global Capital’s ruthless cost-cutting is taking its toll on Tribune Publishing and its newspapers, especially the New York Daily News. In the latest blow, the publisher is asking its editorial staff to consider buyouts. This is the third time the paper has offered voluntary buyouts since it was purchased by the hedge fund in 2017. It is not clear whether employees will take the offer this time. If they do not, the company may be forced to declare bankruptcy, Media Ink reports. The NYDNC’s top editor was removed on Monday. Insiders blame the shakeup on ruthless cost-cutting by the paper’s new owner. The Daily News has a long tradition of strong and independent editorial leadership, which is at risk under its new ownership.
