(9,175 posts)Back in the '60s and '70s it was solidly pro-conservation, kind of like today's New York Post.
I don't know how or why it changed, but it's definitely a different paper now.

(29,428 posts)The front pages in 2016 were epic. I think the hatred goes way back like most New Yorkers.

At best he was considered a clown, now of course it's all so much worse.

(53,584 posts)It included a 7900 word, 14 chapter editorial that railed against Donald Trump and everything that he stands for.
TRUMP THE DEMAGOGUE,
TRUMP THE FRAUDSTER,
TRUMP THE HEAD CASE,
TRUMP THE FAKE PHILANTHROPIST,
TRUMP THE LIAR,
TRUMP THE FLIP-FLOPPER,
TRUMP THE IGNORAMUS,
TRUMP THE CONSPIRACY THEORIST,
TRUMP THE TAX EVADER,
TRUMP THE DIVIDER,
TRUMP THE AUTHORITARIAN,
TRUMP THE SECURITY RISK,
TRUMP THE MISOGYNIST
and TRUMP THE ENEMY OF DEMOCRACY.

(28,836 posts)it's pretty likely that they had similar opinions at the time.

(154 posts)As a non New Yorker isn't this one of the papers owned by Murdoch as many of us are questioning
krkaufman
(13,974 posts)No. Its the NY Daily News, not the Murdoch-owned NY Post.

TwilightZone
(28,836 posts)You can see the date in the upper-right-hand corner, but it's a bit blurry.

(28,836 posts)Though, their opinion of Trump is largely the same now.
MadameButterfly
(4,290 posts)That's what I want to know.
TwilightZone
(28,836 posts)But I haven't paid much attention to them lately, so I can't confirm if they've posted something similar this cycle. I wouldn't be surprised if they had, though. I think their opinion of him hasn't changed.

(1 post)Murdoch owns the NY Post.
Moebym
(1,033 posts)Of course, I agree with the sentiment, but this isn't today's paper.
progressoid
(53,584 posts)Good catch.

(15,771 posts)What's the story on this paper? I know there's one in NY that's like more of a tabloid...?
But honestly, IDK...we need MORE OF THIXS!!!
TwilightZone
(28,836 posts)Second, the NY Daily News is left of center. You're probably thinking of the NY Post, which is a Murdoch rag.

(28,836 posts)it's more than likely that the Daily News feels exactly the same way now. This cover just isn't from today.

(28,836 posts)Oh, wait, this *is* the cover from 2016.
TwilightZone
(28,836 posts)On the bright side, the Daily News still likely feels the same way.
But, misinformation is misinformation, regardless of the source. Fooling people into thinking this is from today is misguided, at best.

TwilightZone
(28,836 posts)The Daily News is still pretty reliably left-of-center, but the cover is not from today. The OP headline is false.
republianmushroom
(22,933 posts)Over 200 Gannett outlets not 'endorsing in presidential or national races' these will not endorse either, lack of nerve.
