Newsday

''Newsday'' is an American daily newspaper that primarily serves Nassau and Suffolk counties and the New York City borough of Queens on Long Island, although it is sold throughout the New York metropolitan area. As of 2009, its weekday circulation of 377,500 was the 11th-highest in the United States, and the highest among suburban newspapers. In 2012, ''Newsday'' expanded to include Rockland and Westchester county news on its website. As of January 2014, Newsday's total average circulation was 437,000 on weekdays, 434,000 on Saturdays and 495,000 on Sundays.〔
The newspaper's headquarters are in Melville, New York, in Suffolk County.
==History==
Founded by Alicia Patterson—the daughter of Joseph Medill Patterson, founder of the New York ''Daily News''—with backing from her husband, Harry Guggenheim, the paper was first published on September 3, 1940 from Hempstead. For many years until a major redesign in the 1970s, ''Newsday'' copied the ''Daily News'' format of short stories and lots of pictures (Ironically, Patterson was fired as a writer at her father's ''Daily News'' in her early 20s, after getting the basic facts of a divorce wrong in a published report). After Patterson's death in 1963, Guggenheim became publisher and editor.
In 1967, Guggenheim turned over the publisher position to Bill Moyers and continued as president and editor-in-chief. But Guggenheim was disappointed by the liberal drift of the newspaper under Moyers, criticizing what he called the "left-wing" coverage of Vietnam War protests. The two split over the 1968 presidential election, with Guggenheim signing an editorial supporting Richard Nixon, when Moyers supported Hubert Humphrey.
Guggenheim sold his majority share to the then-conservative Times-Mirror Company over the attempt of newspaper employees to block the sale, even though Moyers offered $10 million more than the Times-Mirror purchase price; Moyers resigned a few days later.〔 Guggenheim, who died a year later, disinherited Moyers from his will.
After the competing ''Long Island Press'' (not to be confused with the alternative weekly of the same name) ceased publication in 1977, ''Newsday'' launched a separate Queens edition, followed by a New York City edition dubbed ''New York Newsday''. In June 2000, Times Mirror merged with the Tribune Company, partnering ''Newsday'' with the New York City television station WPIX (Channel 11), also owned by Tribune.
With the Times Mirror-Tribune merger, the newspaper founded by Alicia Patterson was now owned by the company that was founded by her great-grandfather, Joseph Medill — which owns the ''Chicago Tribune'' and, until 1991, also owned her father's ''Daily News''. (Tribune sold the ''Daily News'' to British newspaper magnate Robert Maxwell. After Maxwell's death in 1992, his publishing empire collapsed and Mortimer Zuckerman purchased the ''Daily News''.) Chicago, Illinois, real estate magnate Samuel Zell purchased Tribune in 2007.〔
News Corporation, headed by CEO Rupert Murdoch, attempted to purchase ''Newsday'' for US$580 million in April 2008.〔(''Newsday'' (April 23, 2008): "Murdoch tells LI officials deal for ''Newsday'' close", by Ellen Yan and James T. Madadore )〕 This was soon followed by a matching bid from Zuckerman〔(Reuters (April 16, 2008): "Zuckerman submits $580 million Newsday bid: source" ), by Robert Macmillan and Kenneth Lee〕 and a $680 million bid from Cablevision.〔(Reuters (May 2, 2008): "Cablevision submits $650 mln bid for Newsday: source" ) by Jui Chakravorty Das〕 In May 2008, News Corporation withdrew its bid,〔(Reuters (May 11, 2008) )〕 and on May 12, 2008, ''Newsday'' reported that Cablevision would purchase the paper for $650 million.〔(Cablevision announces deal to buy Newsday ), ''Newsday'', May 12, 2008〕 The sale was completed July 29, 2008.〔(Cablevision Completes Newsday Buy from Tribune ), Broadcasting and Cable, July 29, 2008〕
