"The liberal New York Times presents (rightly or wrongly) as the superstar of national and international news and the indisputable arbiter of fashion taste. The New York Times entertainment critics are legendary and more often quoted than Shakespeare. The Wall Street Journal has its finger on the pulse of the financial world. The Wall Street Journal columnists and writers are erudite, literate, and accomplished, and often send me to the dictionary."

"Both the Daily News and the New York Post are tabloid sized, consisting of about 130 pages including the ads. Both tabloids appeal to the same audience, a blue-collar working class and middle-educated sports minded readership which dwells in the boroughs and has neither time nor patience for the New York Times nor the Wall Street Journal."
