O’Daily News Article other newspapers of the time, which were often seen as a mouthpiece for the elite, the Daily News declared itself to be “on the side of the average citizen.” It favored the respectable, white ethnic masses; it would entertain them, empathize with them, assist them and battle their perceived enemies. In this sense it tapped into the deep veins of reactionary populism.

This stance was sometimes obscured by seemingly apolitical coverage of crime and human-interest stories (although even these tended to carry implicit right-wing messages). The newspaper also had a reputation for virulent anti-Semitism, which reached its nadir in a Capitol Stuff column by John O’Donnell on October 3, 1945. The article characterized the decision to remove General George S. Patton from his command in Germany as being engineered by a clique of “Zionist Jewish-American political leaders” in the government.
