MEANS LIFE TO THE NEWS
You may have the news beat of a century on your desk. Hold it a half hour too long—long enough for another paper to print it First—and for you it is Yesterday’s News with all the Life ebbed out of it.
The News Policy of the New York Evening Journal can be summarized in five sentences:
Give all the vital news of the moment.
Give it cleanly.
Give it accurately.
Give it interestingly.
Give it succinctly.
Back of this clean-cut, vigorous policy of news presentation is the finest reportorial and editorial talent that money can buy.
Local news printed in the New York Evening Journal is furnished by the most adequate staff of reporters and special writers retained by any evening newspaper in the city.
Telegraphic news is furnished by the International News Service—with well equipped offices not only in New York but in Washington, London, Paris, Rome, Moscow, Peking—with expert representatives all over the world. In New York City’s evening newspaper field International News Service serves the New York Evening Journal exclusively.
