About the NY Post

The Tabloid is one of the oldest newspapers published in the US. Founded on November 16 of 1801 by Alexander Hamilton, it was known as the New York Evening Post. It is one of the first daily newspapers of the nation. It is now owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, the third-largest media conglomerate of the world.

Being considered many times as sensationalist and conservatively biased. A survey made by Pace University, in 2004, showed The New York Post as the least-credible major news paper in New York.

The NY Post direct competitor is the Daily News, mostly standing behind it in terms of circulation. As of April, 2010, the Post's daily circulation is 525,004, just 10,000 behind the Daily News.

As of 1996, the Post has had its website: http://www.nypost.com/

In the next few days I'll be analysing and reviewing the online site of the newspaper. Trying to cover it's metholody, interests, coverage, multimedia use, design, etc.
