2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: You know how far the party has fallen when the NY Daily News is the democrats' paper of record [View all]MineralMan
(146,262 posts)5. Who is calling that paper any sort of "paper of record?"
The answer is: Nobody. It is a New York City tabloid. It publishes what it chooses to publish, just like most newspapers.
It endorsed Hillary Clinton. Other papers have done the same. That is their prerogative. Any newspaper can endorse anyone it chooses.
The NY Daily News is not, in any way, a "paper of record." The only one using that phrase is you. It is just another newspaper.
