What is a Daily News?
Daily News is a newspaper founded in 1878 and published every day except Sundays. It is South Africa’s leading multi-platform news media company, delivering quality content to a wide audience.
Its editorial team, led by the editor-in-chief (also called the executive editor or chief editorial officer) and publisher, selects articles for inclusion and supervises the overall production of the newspaper. Other departments of a large newspaper include design, advertising, circulation and printing. It may also have non-newspaper-specific departments found in other businesses of comparable size, such as accounting, marketing, human resources and information technology.
The publisher of a newspaper is the overall manager, who oversees the operations and finances of the publication. In small newspapers, the owner is often also the publisher. In larger newspapers, the publisher is usually the top corporate executive. In the United States, the overall manager of a newspaper is typically known as the publisher or CEO.
A daily newspaper is a publication that contains news and opinions about current events and issues. It is most commonly distributed in the form of a folded sheet of paper or is available as a digital edition on the internet. It usually contains a variety of sections and types of articles. The most common section of a newspaper is the local news section, which is often divided into different categories depending on the region or community in which the newspaper is published.
Many newspapers also contain national or international news. Some have editorial pages that express the views of the publisher, which are often influenced by political and economic issues. Opinions of other writers and readers are expressed in the op-ed or letters to the editor sections. Some ways that newspapers try to improve their credibility are appointing ombudsmen, developing ethics policies and training, using more stringent corrections policies and communicating with sources about the editing process.
A newspaper may be a broadsheet or tabloid. Broadsheets are often considered more intellectual and traditional, but a trend towards “compact” newspapers has reduced their popularity in some countries. Tabloids are half the size of broadsheets, and are often perceived as sensationalist in comparison.
The New York Times is one of the most well-known American newspapers. It was founded in 1851 and is currently owned by the newspaper group Tribune Publishing, which owns other major U.S. newspapers, including the Los Angeles Times and Chicago Tribune.
In the 1920s, the newspaper was based in 220 East 42nd Street, an official city and national landmark designed by John Mead Howells and Raymond Hood and modelled on The Daily Planet building in the first two Superman movies. The newspaper moved to 450 West 33rd Street in 1995.
