The New York Times (NYT or NY Times) is an American daily newspaper based in New
York City with a worldwide influence and readership.[5][6] Nicknamed "the Gray
Lady",[7] the Times has long been regarded within the industry as a national
"newspaper of record".[8] Founded in 1851, the paper has won 130 Pulitzer Prizes,
more than any other.[9] It is ranked 18th in the world by circulation and 3rd in
the U.S.[10]
The paper is owned by The New York Times Company, which is publicly traded. It
has been governed by the Sulzberger family since 1896, through a dual-class share
structure after its shares became publicly-traded.[11] A. G. Sulzberger and his
father, Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr.—the paper's publisher and the company's
chairman, respectively—are the fourth and fifth generation of the family to head
the paper.[12]
The Times stayed with the broadsheet full-page set-up and an eight-column format
for several years after most papers switched to six,[19] and was one of the last
newspapers to adopt color photography, especially on the front page.[20] The
paper's motto, "All the News That's Fit to Print", appears in the upper left-hand
corner of the front page.
Interruptions
Because of holidays, no editions were printed on November 23, 1851; January 2,
1852; July 4, 1852; January 2, 1853; and January 1, 1854.[200]
Because of strikes, the regular edition of The New York Times was not printed
during the following periods:[201]
December 9, 1962, to March 31, 1963. Only a western edition was printed
because of the 1962–63 New York City newspaper strike.
September 17, 1965, to October 10, 1965. An international edition was
printed, and a weekend edition replaced the Saturday and Sunday papers.
August 10, 1978, to November 5, 1978. A multi-union strike shut down the
three major New York City newspapers. No editions of The New York Times were
printed.[200] Two months into the strike, a parody of The New York Times called
Not The New York Times was distributed in the city, with contributors such as
Carl Bernstein, Christopher Cerf, Tony Hendra and George Plimpton.[202][203]
