Daily News is a tabloid newspaper published in New York City, United States.

In the 1920s it became known for its sensational coverage of crime, scandal and violence, as well as its lurid photographs and cartoons. It fought off competition from rival tabloids such as the New York Post and the Chicago Tribune for decades until its circulation peaked in 1947, when it was one of the top newspapers in the world.
