New York Post

About

The New York Post is a daily tabloid newspaper founded in 1801 by Alexander Hamilton, making it one of the oldest continuously published newspapers in the United States. Initially known as the New-York Evening Post, it transitioned from a broadsheet to a tabloid format under Dorothy Schiff's ownership in the mid-20th century. The Post is owned by News Corp, a media conglomerate led by Rupert Murdoch, who acquired it in 1976 and again in 1993. The newspaper is known for its sensational headlines and conservative-leaning editorial stance. The New York Post plays a significant role in shaping public opinion with its coverage of local and national news. It operates several online platforms, including NYPost.com, PageSix.com for celebrity gossip, and Decider.com for entertainment. Despite its conservative bias, the Post has been a major player in New York City's media landscape for over two centuries, maintaining a strong presence in the city's competitive newspaper market. Its influence extends beyond print, with a substantial online following and impact on popular culture.
