New York Daily News
The New York Daily News is a U.S. newspaper based in New York City. It is the ninth most widely circulated daily newspaper in the country, printing 200,000 copies a day. It was founded in 1919, and was the first U.S. daily printed in tabloid format. As of 2017, the paper is owned by tronc, the publishing operations of the former Tribune Company, and is headquartered at 4 New York Plaza in Lower Manhattan.
Though a self-proclaimed Republican newspaper for much of its history, the Daily News in recent years has exhibited a more moderate-to-liberal bias, and is often contrasted with the right-rated New York Post.

Get ready to open your backpack or bag to National Guard troops or state law enforcement when you ride New York City’s subway.
Gov. Hochul is deploying 750 members of the Guard and 250 state and MTA police officers to subway stations to inspect passengers’ bags following a spate of violent incidents across the system.
“No one heading to their job or to visit family or to go to a doctor’s appointment should worry that the person sitting next to them possesses a deadly weapon,” Hochul said Wednesday beside MTA Chairman Janno Lieber in front of a giant system map at the MTA’s Rail Control Center.
“They shouldn’t worry about whether someone’s going to brandish a knife or a gun.”
