Newsday is a daily newspaper in the United States primarily serving Nassau and Suffolk counties on Long Island, although it is also sold throughout the New York metropolitan area. The slogan of the newspaper is "Newsday, Your Eye on LI", and formerly it was "Newsday, the Long Island Newspaper".[3] The newspaper's headquarters are located in Melville, New York.
By January 2014, Newsday's total average circulation was 437,000 on weekdays, 434,000 on Saturdays and 495,000 on Sundays.[5] As of 2019, the newspaper's weekday circulation of 250,000 was the eighth-largest in the nation, and the highest among suburban newspapers.[6] In June 2022, the newspaper had an average print circulation of 97,182.[7]
Until undergoing a major redesign in the 1970s, Newsday copied the Daily News format of short stories and numerous pictures. Patterson was fired as a writer at her father's Daily News in her early 20s, after getting the basic facts of a divorce wrong in a published report. Following Patterson's death in 1963, Guggenheim became publisher and editor.
In 1967, Guggenheim turned over the publisher position to Bill Moyers and continued as president and editor-in-chief. But Guggenheim was disappointed by the liberal drift of the newspaper under Moyers, criticizing what he called the "left-wing" coverage of the anti-Vietnam War protests.[9][10]
Guggenheim sold his majority share to the then-conservative Times-Mirror Company over the attempt of newspaper employees to block the sale, even though Moyers offered $10 million more than the Times-Mirror purchase price; Moyers resigned a few days later.[9][12][13] Guggenheim, who died a year later, had Moyers removed from his will.[14]
After the competing Long Island Press (not to be confused with the alternative weekly of the same name) ceased publication in 1977, Newsday launched a separate Queens edition, followed by a New York City edition dubbed New York Newsday. In June 2000, Times Mirror merged with the Tribune Company, partnering Newsday with the New York City television station WPIX, also owned by Tribune.
With the Times Mirror-Tribune merger, the newspaper founded by Alicia Patterson was now owned by the company that was founded by her great-grandfather, Joseph Medill, who owned the Chicago Tribune and, until 1991, also owned her father's Daily News. Tribune sold the Daily News to British newspaper magnate Robert Maxwell.
Following Maxwell's death in 1992, Medill's publishing empire collapsed, and Mortimer Zuckerman purchased the Daily News, and Chicago real estate magnate Samuel Zell purchased the Tribune in 2007.[15]
21st century
In April 2008, News Corporation, headed by CEO Rupert Murdoch, attempted to purchase Newsday for US$580 million.[16] This was followed by a matching bid from Zuckerman[17] and a $680 million bid from Cablevision.[18]
In May 2008, News Corporation withdrew its bid,[19] and on May 12, 2008, Newsday reported that Cablevision would purchase the paper for $650 million.[20] The sale was completed July 29, 2008.[21]
In 2016, Altice, a Netherlands-based multinational telecommunications company, acquired Cablevision, including Newsday and News 12.[22][23] However, Altice then sold a majority (75%) stake in Newsday back to Cablevision's former owner Charles Dolan and his son Patrick, making Patrick the CEO of Newsday.[24][25] Altice disposed of its remaining stake in Newsday at the end of July 2018, which, combined with Charles Dolan's transfer of shares to son Patrick, made Patrick the sole owner of Newsday.[26]
In March 2023, Newsday launched NewsdayTV, featuring former News 12 Networks anchor Elisa DiStefano. NewsdayTV is available online and through major streaming outlets. NewsdayTV takes a similar approach to news as other Long Island news outlets such as News12.
Editorial style
Despite having a tabloid format, Newsday is not known for being sensationalistic, as are other local daily tabloids, such as the New York Daily News and the New York Post.[29][30] This causes Newsday to sometimes be referred to as "the respectable tabloid".[31]
In 2004, the alternative weekly newspaper Long Island Press (which is not related to the defunct daily of the same name) wrote that Newsday has used its clout to influence local politics in Nassau and Suffolk Counties.[32]
From 1985 to 2005, Michael Mandelbaum wrote a regular foreign affairs analysis column for Newsday. Writer and biographer Robert Caro was an investigative reporter. Its features section has included television reporters Verne Gay and Diane Werts, TV/film feature writer Frank Lovece, and film critic Rafer Guzman. Newsday carries the syndicated columnist Froma Harrop. Pulitzer Prize winner Walt Handelsman's editorial political cartoons animation are a nationally syndicated feature of Newsday. In the 1980s, a new design director, Robert Eisner, guided the transition into digital design and color printing. [citation needed]
Newsday created and sponsored a "Long Island at the Crossroads" advisory board in 1978, to recommend regional goals, supervise local government, and liaison with state and Federal officials.[34][35][36] It lasted approximately a decade.
On March 21, 2011, Newsday redesigned its front page, scrapping the nameplate and font used since the 1960s in favor of a sans-serif wordmark.[37]
Circulation
In 2004, a circulation scandal revealed that the paper's daily and Sunday circulation had been inflated by 16.9% and 14.5%, respectively, in the auditing period September 30, 2002 to September 30, 2003.[38] The Audit Bureau of Circulation adjusted average weekday circulation to 481,816 from 579,599; average Saturday circulation to 392,649 from 416,830; and average Sunday circulation to 574,081 from 671,820, and instituted twice-yearly audits.[38]
In 2008, Newsday was ranked 10th in terms of newspaper circulation in the United States.[15]
On October 28, 2009, Newsday changed its web site to a paid-subscriber only model. Newsday.com would open its front page, classified ads, movie listings, and school closings to all site visitors, but access beyond this content would require a weekly fee – US$5 as of 2010. This fee would be waived for subscribers of the print edition of the paper, as well as for subscribers to parent-company Cablevision's Internet service.[39] Through its first three months only 35 non-Optimum, non-Newsday subscribers signed up for the paid website.[40]
Pulitzer Prizes
Newsday has won 19 Pulitzer Prizes and has been a finalist for 20 additional (if no individual is listed, award is for Newsday staff):[41]
2008: Public Service (Finalist) — Jennifer Barrios, Sophia Chang, Michael R. Ebert, Reid J. Epstein, Jennifer Sinco Kelleher, Eden Laikin, Herbert Lowe, Joseph Mallia, Jennifer Maloney, Luis Perez and Karla Schuster
1969: The novel Naked Came the Stranger is written as a literary hoax poking fun at contemporary American culture. Although credited to "Penelope Ashe", it was in fact written by a group of 24 journalists led by Newsday columnist Mike McGrady, who intended to author a deliberately terrible book with a lot of sex to illustrate the point that popular American literary culture had become mindlessly vulgar. The book fulfilled the authors' expectations and became a bestseller in 1969; they revealed the hoax later that year, further spurring the book's popularity.
1985: In the comedy/thriller Compromising Positions, the lead character, played by Susan Sarandon, is a former Newsday journalist who is trying reestablish her career by selling a freelance story to the publication.
2016: In the documentary Three Identical Strangers, former editor Howard Schneider discusses Newsday's coverage of three young men who discovered they were separated as infants.[42]
