The New York Sun is a contemporary five-day
daily newspaper published in New York City. When it debuted on April 16, 2002, it became "the first general interest broadsheet newspaper to be launched in New York in two generations." Unlike the other major daily newspapers of New York, the
Sun publishes only five editions per week (Monday through Friday, with the Friday paper labeled "weekend edition"). The newspaper's president and editor-in-chief is
Seth Lipsky, former editor of
The Forward; its managing editor (and a company vice president) is
Ira Stoll.
The paper's
motto, displayed on its masthead and website, is "It Shines For All." This motto is also the name of a blog that is part of the
Sun's online presence along with its official website.
An earlier newspaper also named
New York Sun (historical) began publication in
1833 and merged with the
New York World-Telegram in
1950. Other than their shared name, address, motto and
Masthead (publishing), there is no connection between the current
Sun and its namesake.
Features
The New York Sun is well known for its learned and serious arts coverage, which includes such
critics as Adam Kirsch on literature, Jay Nordlinger on classical music, Joel Lobenthal on dance, Lance Esplund on art,
Otto Penzler on mystery writing, Eric Ormsby on poetry, Carl Rollyson on biography, and
Will Friedwald on jazz. The
Sun has also received critical praise for its sports section, whose writers include
Steven Goldman, Thomas Hauser,
Sean Lahman, and Tim Marchman. Its
crossword puzzle, edited by Peter Gordon, has been called one of the two best in the United States . The
Sun's sports columns are known for featuring "new-age" or
sabermetrics writers and analysis, including John Hollinger and various writers from
Football Outsiders.
Editorial stance and relationship with
The New York Times
The
Sun was founded by a group of investors including Conrad Black with the intent of providing a non-
tabloid alternative to
The New York Times. It would put
Manhattan and
New York news on its front page (in contrast to the
Times' emphasis on national and international news over local issues). The ''Sun'''s managing editor Ira Stoll had been a longtime critic of this policy of the ''Times'', as well as what he considered to be liberal [media bias in ''Times'' reporting, in his media watchdog [blog smartertimes.com.http://www.medialifemagazine.com/news2001/nov01/nov26/5_fri/news3friday.html When smartertimes.com became defunct, its Web traffic was redirected to the ''Sun'' website.
Stoll has characterized the ''Sun'''s political orientation as "
Left-Right politics,"http://www.nationalreview.com/comment/clyne200407190902.asp and an associate of Conrad Black predicted in 2002 that the paper would be "certainly neoconservative in its views."http://www.medialifemagazine.com/news2001/nov01/nov26/5_fri/news3friday.html Editor-in-chief Lipsky describes the agenda of the paper's prominent
Editorial as "limited government, individual liberty, constitutional fundamentals, equality under the law, economic growth ... standards in literature and culture, education."http://dir.salon.com/story/news/feature/2002/04/25/nysun/index.html The
Sun's roster of columnists includes many prominent
Conservatism writers, including
William F. Buckley, Jr.,
Michael Barone (pundit),
Daniel Pipes, and
Mark Steyn.
The
Sun is "known for its pugnacious coverage of Jewish-related issues";http://www.forward.com/articles/hollinger-woes-casting-a-pall-over-future-of-neoco/ in particular, it is "a strong proponent of Israel's right to defend itself."http://www.nationalreview.com/comment/clyne200407190902.asp It has published articles by pro-Israel reporter Aaron Klein.
The paper courted controversy in 2003 with an unsigned February 6 editorial arguing that
protest against the
Iraq war should be prosecuted for
treason.http://www.slate.com/id/2078455/http://www.nationalreview.com/comment/comment-evolokh020703.asp
According to Scott Sherman, writing in the left-wing magazine
The Nation (4/30/07), the
Sun is "a broadsheet that injects conservative ideology into the country's most influential philanthropic, intellectual and media hub; a paper whose day-to-day coverage of New York City emphasizes lower taxes, school vouchers and free-market solutions to urban problems; a paper whose elegant culture pages hold their own against the Times in quality and sophistication; a paper that breaks news and crusades on a single issue; a paper that functions as a journalistic SWAT team against individuals and institutions seen as hostile to Israel and Jews; and a paper that unapologetically displays the scalps of its victims."Sherman, Scott (2007-4-30). "
Sun-rise in New York".
The Nation.
In the same article,
Mark Malloch Brown, Kofi Annan's chief of staff at the
United Nations, describes the
Sun as "a pimple on the backside of American journalism." According to Sherman, Brown "accepts that the paper's obsession with the UN translates into influence... he admits the Sun "does punch way above its circulation number, on occasion." He goes on to say, "Clearly amongst its minuscule circulation were a significant number of diplomats. And so it did at times act as some kind of rebel house paper inside the UN. It fed the gossip mills and what was said in the cafeterias." Brown's insult was in the context of the Sun's determined reporting of the UN's central role in the
Saddam Hussein Oil_for_food.
Adweek columnist Tom Messner calls the Sun "the best paper in New York" (5/14/07), noting that "
The New York Sun is a conservative paper, but it gets the respect of the left.
The Nation's April 30 issue contains an article on the Sun's rise by Scott Sherman that is as balanced an article as I have ever read in the magazine (not a gibe; you don't read
The Nation for balance)."http://www.adweek.com/aw/magazine/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003584574
Circulation
The Audit Bureau of Circulations confirmed that in its first six months of publication the
Sun had an average circulation of just under 18,000.http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C04EFDB173CF930A15751C1A9649C8B63 By 2005 the paper reported an estimated circulation of 45,000.http://www.medialifemagazine.com/News2005/may05/may09/4_thurs/news2thursday.html In December 2005 the
Sun withdrew from the Audit Bureau of Circulations to join the Certified Audit of Circulations, whose other New York clients are the free papers
The Village Voice and
AM New York, and began an aggressive campaign of free distribution in select neighborhoods.http://www.nysun.com/article/24943?page_no=2http://www.gawker.com/news/metro/groundhog-day-revelation-12-weeks-of-sun-152436.php As of 2007 the paper claims a readership of 150,000.http://www.nysun.com/placeanad.php
The
Sun's online edition has been accessible for free since August 2006.http://www.mediabistro.com/fishbowlny/newspapers/new_york_sun_sees_light_makes_web_free_41612.asp
While the
Sun claims "150,000 of New York City's Most Influential Readers Every Day," according to April 2007 article in
The Nation, its
Sun's own audit indicates that "the
Sun is selling 13,211 hard copies a day and giving away more than 85,000. (By contrast, the
Daily News sells about 700,000 copies a day.) In an attempt to lasso subscribers in certain New York ZIP codes, the
Sun recently offered free subscriptions for a full year, an unusual way for a newspaper to build circulation."
