What’s Up with the Daily News?

Years after moving from the NY area, I still closely follow SJU hoops and all I can say is, thank God for the NY Post. Unless I’m missing something, I never seem to be able to find coverage of our team in the NY Daily News. It wasn’t like that years ago when I worked in Manhattan and would read the sports pages of both the Post and News over lunch. But in the last 15 to 20 years, the News has treated St. John’s like they don’t exist. Anyone know why we get piss poor coverage in the News?

Drastic cutbacks.
 
The Daily News readership has dried up, their website is wonky compared to the NY Post.I hate to get into politics but when they went more left of center like 8 years ago they lost heavy readership. I also believe they went through a couple of owners over the last few years. Definitely not NY’s hometown paper like it was in the 1980s/1990s plus the whole print newspaper/magazine industry is not what it used to be, it’s a dying industry.

The only reason the NY Post exists and still has a decent-sized staff is that it is heavily subsidized by other more profitable News Corp properties like Fox News.

It’s still Rupert Murdoch’s baby - his first big entry to the American market. I suspect that when he goes, the Post will be in jeopardy.
 
Many years ago, The Daily News had a great sports section    Phil Pepe, Mike Lupica

As mentioned cutbacks etc.,  not even worth looking at the daily news online
 
The Daily News has turned into a rag cobbling pieces from wire services etc. Not worth buying except for the Sunday edition. A shell of what it once was.
 
Newspapers are a dying biz. Now we are left with right wing and left wing trash on the internet and cable

I hadn't really noticed the right wing trash. Guess I need to pay closer attention. /media/kunena/emoticons/wink.png

I'll assume you missed my "wink" emoji to my buddy Mike. I'll also assume you're a lefty, which would explain your lack of sense of humor

When you see a site or station promoting Trump coming back to office by year end or Jan 6 being a false flag conspiracy etc you have found it :)

You need them to reshoot that eating tater tots and losing calories and rename it the teeter tater totter :)
 
multiple Private Equity ownership changes/debacles and the biggest cut backs in the industry, have left the Daily News with little real content, and no one to cover anything including sports, even the local pro teams, let alone college teams.

And the NYT would rather have a 5 column article about Australian soccer, or high school basketball on native American reservations in New Mexico, than cover the Johnnies or even our local pro teams.

The only local sports print media is the NYPost (for Long Islanders maybe Newsday--nothing good out in Jersey), and the Post does a good job covering the Johnnies.
