Daily news is a type of newspaper published each day that covers local and national events, sports, politics and more. It also has features such as opinion pieces, advice columns, comics, horoscopes and classified ads. Many newspapers publish a combination of print and online versions. Some are free and others are subscription-based.

The New York Daily News was founded in 1919 as the Illustrated Daily News, and became one of the first successful tabloid newspapers in the United States. It drew readers with sensational coverage of crime and scandal, lurid photographs, and cartoons and entertainment features. It was a rival of the even more sensational New York Post. During its peak years in the mid-20th century, it had a circulation of more than 2 million.

Today, the New York Daily News has a circulation of around 1.5 million and is among the top five largest newspapers in the U.S. The newspaper is part of the Tribune Publishing Company, which also publishes several other regional and national newspapers.

In addition to the main paper, the Daily News publishes a number of other periodicals and supplements. These include a Friday supplement called WKND, the Yale Daily News Magazine and special issues such as the Yale-Harvard game day issue and the commencement issue. The newspaper also maintains a digital archive of over 140 years of printed issues.

Each day’s newspaper is produced at the New York Daily News Building, designed by architects John Mead Howells and Raymond Hood in 1929. The building is an official city landmark and was the model for the Daily Planet in the first two Superman films. The newspaper moved to 450 West 33rd Street (also known as 5 Manhattan West) in 1995, but the 42nd Street location remains a symbol of New York City and is known as The News Building.

Most weekly newspapers employ full-time staff reporters and photographers, but they may also have freelance or contract journalists who write on a per-story basis. Some also have staff writers who edit or layout the newspaper. Layout involves the arrangement of information on a page, including photos with cutlines (captions that identify the people and subject of the photograph), copy, headlines and white space.

Like daily newspapers, most weekly publications have an editorial page, a public-record section with summaries of police-incident reports and fire department calls, and the results of criminal proceedings and other government activities in their circulation area. In addition, some weekly newspapers have lifestyle features such as theater and art reviews and restaurant reviews.

The New York Daily News has a Media Bias rating of Left, which means that the newspaper has a liberal bias. Its content frequently aligns with left-wing thought and policy agendas. The newspaper has a history of supporting progressive or left-wing causes, and has been criticized for its anti-corporate coverage. It has also been criticized for slashing jobs and reducing staffing levels, due to the pressure from its owner, hedge fund billionaire Heath Freeman and his Alden Global Capital group.
