Daily news is a short, concise and up-to-the-minute report of the major happenings in the world. The news is published by a number of different sources and is available in many formats, including print, television, and the internet. It is often a combination of local, national and international news. It can also include celebrity, sports and business news. The information is designed to be digested quickly by busy people who need up-to-date, accurate and comprehensive news.

In the 1920s, the New York Daily News became one of the most successful tabloid newspapers in the United States. It attracted readers with sensational coverage of crime, scandal and violence, lurid photographs and cartoons. The newspaper also reported on 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 his abdication. The Daily News was an early user of Associated Press wirephoto and built up a large staff of photographers.

The newspaper also had a reputation for going one step further than its competitors in its pursuit of attention-grabbing front page headlines. This was never more evident than in 1928 when a reporter strapped a small camera to his leg and captured an image of Ruth Snyder being executed in the electric chair. The next day, the newspaper ran the photograph with the headline, “DEAD!”

During its heyday in the 1970s, the Daily News had more than a million daily readers and was one of the best-read newspapers in the United States. In 1982, however, the tabloid began to decline. In the midst of a multi-union strike, the paper saw its readership drop to less than half a million. The Daily News was unable to recover and by the 1980s, it was losing $1 million a month. Several attempts were made to sell the newspaper, but none of them succeeded. Closing the newspaper was considered, but it was ruled out because of expensive severance pay and pensions for employees.

Today, the Daily News is owned by Tronc, a division of Tribune Company. Its staff of award-winning writers and columnists covers national and New York City news, politics, the Yankees and Mets and celebrity gossip. The newspaper is distributed throughout the United States and around the world.
