tabloid

adjective

a type of journalism deriving from the style used by newspapers in tabloid format, focusing on controversial and sensationalistic angles or subjects

Maybe google AI can help you:

Is new york daily news a tabloid?

Yes, the New York Daily News is a tabloid. This is accurate in two different ways: by its physical size and by its journalistic style.
Physical size
The Daily News is printed in the smaller, more compact tabloid format, which is easier to read on the go, such as on the subway.
In contrast, a broadsheet, like The New York Times, is larger and unfolds vertically.
Journalistic style
As America's first successful tabloid when it was founded in 1919, the Daily News attracted readers with sensationalized coverage of crime and scandal, along with a focus on photographs and entertainment.
While it has evolved and won Pulitzer Prizes for serious journalism, it retains its more accessible, fast-paced style and often competes with other New York papers, such as the New York Post, for eye-catching headlines.

NY-GOV: Mamdani declines to immediately back Hochul's reelection after she offers him coveted endorsement [View all] RandySF Sep 16 OP

This is timely, since I did wonder what he has ever done for her Nixie Sep 16 #1

Laughing so hard I think I threw my back out ... stopdiggin Sep 16 #2

Why is he "required" to stick his nose in a primary after she did the right thing and endorsed the Democratic nominee? Hassin Bin Sober Sep 16 #3

What are you talking about? What have you got against NYDN? lapucelle Sep 16 #5

NYDN is a blue collar tabloid with a Democratic / liberal editorial board and arguably the best sports pages in NYC. lapucelle Sep 16 #7

Oh, ok. LMAO Hassin Bin Sober Sep 16 #8

Is a 4 year old front page and a facebook meme from 10 years ago the best ya got? lapucelle Sep 16 #10

. Hassin Bin Sober Sep 16 #15

Yes, well, I suppose some folks would pick pop star front pages as their most iconic. lapucelle Sep 17 #21

However, if you asked New Yorkers or print journalists to choose their most iconic NYDN front page, lapucelle Sep 17 #22

Momdani's "lavish" 3-day wedding also made the news! Nixie Sep 17 #25

Did someone yell hey rube down at the bingo hall? Hassin Bin Sober Sep 17 #38

I've only seen pictures of Bernie's bingo halls. Maybe that's why Nixie Sep 17 #41

So for those who don't know what the word "tabloid" means, this is why the NYDN is classified as a tabloid. lapucelle Sep 17 #52

Oh dear. lapucelle Sep 18 #54

And in the rush to post your Britney Spears photo, you appeared to have missed this. lapucelle Sep 16 #13

Because there was a thread that "Democrats MUST ENDORSE all Democrats". LeftInTX Sep 16 #16

You know Hochul is entering a contested primary against OTHER DEMOCRATIC candidates for the job, yes? An actual primary Hassin Bin Sober Sep 17 #17

I forgot about the primary LeftInTX Sep 17 #18

Mentioning the word "primary" would have removed 90% of the argle gargle outrage intended in the clickbait headline Hassin Bin Sober Sep 17 #39

The headline that cost a Republican the presidency... lapucelle Sep 17 #49

for crying out loud jaymac Sep 17 #32

Endorsing someone from the same party SocialDemocrat61 Sep 16 #4

Mamdani encouraged folks not to vote for the Democratic presidential candidate in the primary, lapucelle Sep 16 #6

I think that's fine what he did but the ones that then attack Jefferies JI7 Sep 17 #20

Agree JustAnotherGen Sep 17 #42

Well, well, well mcar Sep 16 #11

This is a ridiculous argument UniqueUserName Sep 17 #31

Well, how about that he didn't endorse Biden or Harris last year either. MichMan Sep 17 #51

I'm going to ignore this trend of pushing for early endorsements that is suddenly happening. Quiet Em Sep 16 #12

And just like that, endorsements don't matter. betsuni Sep 16 #14

She probably doesn't want his endorsement JI7 Sep 17 #19

Primaries are important to voters and a great way to know other candidates that don't have as Nanjeanne Sep 17 #23

Please stop making sense. Incanus Sep 17 #24

+2 this is the reason. Emile Sep 17 #27

I wouldn't be so sure of that, he failed to publicly endorsed Kamala Harris during her campaign. tritsofme Sep 17 #28

He wasn't a politician then. Emile Sep 17 #30

Yes he was. He has had a seat in the NYS Assembly since 2020. N/T lapucelle Sep 17 #44

Oh please, how many NYS Assembly members endorsed candidates? Emile Sep 17 #45

You said "He wasn't a politician then [in 2024]". I simply said "Yes he was". lapucelle Sep 17 #46

LOL Emile Sep 17 #47

Why are you sure that "he will endorse any Democrat who wins the Democratic nomination for Governor" lapucelle Sep 17 #33

Because now he is running for Mayor of NYC and will be working with the elected Democratic Governor. Nanjeanne Sep 17 #34

If Mamdani wins, he will be working with Kathy Hochul for the full first year of his term. lapucelle Sep 17 #36

Okey Dokey Nanjeanne Sep 17 #40

Fair point JustAnotherGen Sep 17 #43

Yup, I say don't expect him to endorse but also don't demand JI7 Sep 17 #48

Ah yeah JustAnotherGen Sep 17 #50

Is she the democratic nominee? SSJVegeta Sep 17 #26

If I were Mamdani, I'd do the same thing - Hochul waits almost 3 months to endorse after he won the primary and Midwestern Democrat Sep 17 #29

Hochul will be the governor for Mamdani's first year in office, and, as mayor, Mamdani will be powerless lapucelle Sep 17 #37

This might be good for the governor karynnj Sep 17 #35

So why did we have all that intense bickering and sniping at fellow Dems who didn't immeeeeediately... Hekate Sep 18 #55
