| The New York Times is an American daily newspaper founded, and continuously published in New York City, since 1851. The Times has won 104 Pulitzer Prizes, the most of any news organization.[2] Its website is the most popular American online newspaper website, receiving more than 30 million unique visitors per month.[3] Although the print version of the paper remains both the largest local metropolitan newspaper in the United States as well the third largest overall, behind The Wall Street Journal and USA Today, its weekday circulation has fallen since 1990, not unlike other newspapers, to fewer than one million copies daily for the first time since the 1980s.[4] Nicknamed "The Gray Lady" and long regarded within the industry as a national "newspaper of record", the Times is owned by The New York Times Company, which also publishes 18 other regional newspapers including the International Herald Tribune and The Boston Globe. The company's chairman is Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr., whose family has controlled the paper since 1896.[5] The paper's motto, printed in the upper left-hand corner of the front page, is "All the News That's Fit to Print." It is organized into sections: News, Opinions, Business, Arts, Science, Sports, Style, and Features. The Times stayed with the eight-column format for several years after most papers switched to six columns, and it was one of the last newspapers to adopt color photography. The Times was made available on the iPhone and iPod Touch in 2008,[6] and on the iPad mobile devices in 2010.[7] printing servicesBrazil Packages | |
