The ''Montreal Daily News'' was a short-lived English language Canadian daily newspaper in Quebec. Quebecor founder Pierre Péladeau and British tabloid publisher Robert Maxwell teamed up to launch a competing English-language newspaper against ''The Gazette''. The newspaper was published in a tabloid sized format, instead of broadsheet sized. Its first issue was distributed 15 March 1988. The arrival of the paper resulted in the first publication of Sunday editions in the Montreal newspaper community, to compete against the ''Montreal Daily News Sunday edition, the ''Montreal Gazette'' started to publish one as well. But late in 1989, reports of losses and failure to attain circulation goals led to rumours of the paper's impending demise. In November that year, Péladeau indicated that the paper's survival would depend on either a substantial increase in paid circulation, or a buyer. Original publisher George MacLaren had given way to James Duff, who in turn was dismissed in August. Quebecor finally closed the ''Montreal Daily News'', with its last issue published 15 December 1989. The legacy of the ''Montreal Daily News'' is the existence for some time of Sunday editions in Montreal, now past. ==See also== *List of Quebec media *List of newspapers in Canada ;Montreal newspapers * The Gazette * La Presse * Le Journal de Montréal * Le Devoir * Montreal Daily News * The Montreal Star 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Montreal Daily News」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
