The ''New York Star'' or the ''Daily Star'' (1868–1891) was a New York City newspaper. The paper was founded around early 1868 by employees of ''The Sun'', who feared that the recent purchase of the ''Sun'' by Charles Anderson Dana would turn the political bent of that paper Republican.〔Steele, Janet E. (The Sun Shines for All: Journalism and Ideology in the Life of Charles A. Dana ), p. 81 (1993)〕〔Hudson, Frederic. (Journalism in the United States: From 1690 to 1872 ), p. 488 (1873)〕 Joe Howard, Jr. soon took control of the paper and remained on as editor, publisher and subsequently chief proprietor until the spring of 1875. A series of other editors and owners followed, each generally unsuccessful in their attempts to make the paper profitable. It went from daily publication to weekly, but then William Dorsheimer purchased the paper in 1885 and restarted daily publication, running the paper until his death in 1888.〔(Appleton's Cyclopædia of American Biography, Volume 2 ), p. 208 (1888)〕 Finally, Frank Munsey, who would years later be known as a great consolidator of newspapers, took a six-month option from owner Collis Potter Huntington to buy the ''Star'' in 1891. Munsey turned the paper into a tabloid and renamed it the ''Daily Continent'' as of February 1, 1891. When it did not succeed after a few months, he returned the new paper to Huntington.〔Turner, Hy B. (When Giants Ruled: The Story of Park Row, New York's Great Newspaper Street ), p. 179 (1999)〕〔(February 1891). (Printing and Publishing Prospects Pleasant ), ''The Inland Printer'', p. 441〕 When Munsey's plan to take over the paper were announced, the ''Sun'', still nursing the slight which led to the founding of the ''Star'', published a piece on the "long, very remarkable, and altogether disastrous history" of the paper.〔(February 1891). (The History of a Newspaper ), ''The Newsman''〕 The gossip column ''Bab's Babble'' by Isabel Mallon got its start in the ''Star'' around 1888.〔(15 January 1899). (The Late "Bab" And Her Work ), ''The Vindicator''〕 ==Other ''Stars''== The title ''New York Star'' has been used multiple times for unrelated newspapers, including the New York ''Morning Star'' (1810–13),〔 Brigham, Clarence S. ("Bibliography of American newspapers, 1690-1820: part 8: New York City" ) ''Proceedings of the American Antiquarian Society'' 27(2): 375-513. 1917〕 a newspaper in the 1820s, the ''New York Evening Star'' founded by Major Noah in 1833 or 34,〔Wolf, Simon. (Mordecai Manuel Noah: A Biographical Sketch ), p. 17 (1897)〕〔(About The evening star. (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1840 ), chroniclingamerica.com, Retrieved August 30, 2013〕 a theatrical weekly founded in 1908,〔Gushee, Lawrence (Pioneers of Jazz:The Story of the Creole Band ), p. 527 (2005)〕 and the 1948-49 successor to ''PM''. It is also the title of the fictitious newspaper in the television show ''Sex and the City''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New York Star (1800s newspaper)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
