The Daily News, a tabloid newspaper founded in 1919 by Joseph Medill Patterson, was the first of its kind to succeed. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s, it captivated its readers with sensational crime, scandal and violence, lurid photographs and cartoons.
Today, the Daily News is a subsidiary of the Tribune Company and has a circulation of 2.4 million copies a day. It has been a consistently strong contender in the New York City market, competing with its archrival, the New York Post, for decades. It has also spawned a television station, WPIX (channel 11), and a radio station, WFAN-FM.
Aside from its daily edition, the Daily News also publishes a number of supplements and special sections including The Weekender and Sunday Magazine, which have become popular publications for millennials. They also have a robust online presence that includes a website, mobile apps and social media outlets.
One of the most impressive news stories on the website is the science-themed Breaking News article, which was a great way to keep students in the know about current events and science in general. The Breaking News article is about one-half the length of a regular news story and contains an interesting and entertaining interactive feature to keep readers engaged and informed.
Designed to help students with diverse needs, the Breaking News feature in the daily edition of News-2-You supports reading standards for informational text while giving readers a variety of interesting, educational and entertaining information. This feature helps students connect with the world around them, while fostering critical thinking skills and improving vocabulary.
The Breaking News feature is a clever use of the technology that allows you to read news stories from a wide range of sources and displays the headlines, facts, images and video clips in an engaging manner on the home screen of your device. It also enables you to share and comment on stories through the app’s social sharing capabilities, and send a message about a news story to friends through the mobile app or email.
