Wow, didn't know they even used a newsroom, thought they just made stuff up from home on their laptops. Well, another one from the dinosaur media to bite the dust...

I guess Billy Joel won’t be in a “New York State of mind” without the Daily News.

Used to be a decent newspaper. They were always liberal, but they represented the working and lower-class. The old lunchbox Democrats.

i HATE that paper and online site

I remember when the NY Post went from HARD LEFT to Murdoch and i couldnt believe there was a NYC paper I could buy without throwing up.

Who knew they were one world neocons?

still the best that was around in the 90s

The paper was sold to Tribune Publishing– then known as Tronc– in 2017 by Mort Zuckerman, who bought the paper out of bankruptcy in 2003. The previous owner was Robert Maxwell, who died mysteriously on his yacht. Maxwell was the father of Ghislaine Maxwell, now in prison and awaiting trial in the Jeffrey Epstein sex scandals.

The Daily News used to be a really good paper about 10 years ago. Then it turned seriously left wing and I refused to read it any more, even free online.

Today the News will close its newsroom downtown and employees will have til the fall to come and get their things.

Prospects will be brighter once they learn to code.

Currently, the New York Post and even Long Island Newsday have more circulation than the Daily News and New York Times. I remember when it was the New York Post that was the wannabe (part of the reason why it was not included in Billy Joel’s song). The Times and the News had close to a million a day circulation. The Post wasn’t even available past Fairfield County in CT until a newspaper strike gave them an opportunity to expand. In those days, a superior sports section was a great way for an NYC tabloid to expand readership, and the Post had one.

Good. I hope I live long enough to see the NY Times go out of business too. To hell with them all.

The Daily News building was the set for Clark Kent’s Daily Planet. Iconic NYC architecture will be turned into condos.....

The daily news is a leftist rag, written for people who can only understand words of one syllable, and who don’t know what a syllable is.
I subscribe to the New York Post, which favors Trump and law enforcement, and trashes deblobio and cuuuuoooommmmo.
