How has the Post– News rivalry changed in the past few years? The Post came up with such a good headline: “URINE TROUBLE.” Then it ran six alternate headlines! We had some fun with that.

I can appreciate a good headline as I did this week with this Matt Harvey story where he had his bladder problem. Honestly I have such respect for the tabloid headline writers who come up with clever turns of phrases. “The only reason this is on here now is because the New York Post chose to put this on their front page.” It’s a perfect “have your cake and eat it too” scenario.ĭo you ever think, “Man I have the perfect headline … I should really send it to them.” If there’s a silly, scandalous, yet still fairly newsworthy tabloid story, I can present it to our audience. It’s fun to reach for those and get the tabloid overview first.ĭoes it every get dicey or complicated - you relaying these shadily sourced tabloid items on a legit news channel? But the Post and Daily News still have their delicious tabloid surprises that are entertaining in the morning. For them I’m generally looking at how they’re covering a story in depth. The things the Wall Street Journal and the Times are covering are the same stories that are hitting my news alerts. The Times has been particularly aggressive about trying to replicate the front page.

I think one of the weaknesses of digital is that it hasn’t figured out how to replicate the layout on the page and the weight that one story has over another because of the way it appears on the page. I have a Times digital subscription but I like holding the paper. There are four that are absolutely included every morning: The New York Post, The Daily News, The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times. The newspaper subject is a little tricky with me when they try to pin me down which is worst and which is best. What’s in your roster? Which is your favorite? The gag was that you couldn’t tell that I was shirtless and as I read the story the paper got lower and lower. So I decided to do “In the Papers” topless. The Spanish word is “ desnudas” - the women in Times Square who paint their breasts with the American flag and pose topless with tourists. We had this whole controversy in the summer that still hasn’t been resolved. Where to Stay in New York: 6 New and Notable Hotels
