The ''International New York Times'' is an English language international newspaper. It combines the resources of its own correspondents with those of ''The New York Times'' and is printed at 38 sites throughout the world, for sale in more than 160 countries and territories. Based in Paris since 1887, the newspaper is part of The New York Times Company. From 1967 it was published as the ''International Herald Tribune'' and was renamed on October 15, 2013.〔(Herald Tribune to Be Renamed The International New York Times ) 〕〔(The New York Times Company Announces Plan to Rebrand the International Herald Tribune as the International New York Times ) February 25, 2013 〕 ==History== The ''Paris Herald'' was founded on 4 October 1887, as the European edition of the ''New York Herald'' by the parent paper’s owner, James Gordon Bennett, Jr. The company was based in Neuilly-sur-Seine, a suburb of Paris. After the 1918 death of Bennett, Frank Andrew Munsey bought the ''New York Herald'' and the ''Paris Herald''. Munsey sold the ''Herald'' newspapers in 1924 to the ''New York Tribune'', and the ''Paris Herald'' became the ''Paris Herald Tribune'' while the New York paper became ''New York Herald Tribune''. The newspaper became a mainstay of American expatriate culture in Europe. In Ernest Hemingway’s 1926 novel ''The Sun Also Rises'', the first thing the novel’s protagonist Jake Barnes does on returning from Spain to France is to buy the ''New York Herald'' from a kiosk in Bayonne and read it at a cafe. In Jean-Luc Godard’s 1960 film ''Breathless'', the female lead character Patricia (played by Jean Seberg) is an American student journalist who sells the ''New York Herald Tribune'' on the streets of Paris.〔 Pages from the day’s paper can be seen tacked up through the office windows, a tradition that was to continue with the ''International Herald Tribune''. In 1959 John Hay Whitney, a businessman and United States Ambassador to the United Kingdom, bought the ''New York Herald Tribune'' and its European edition. In 1966 the ''New York Herald Tribune'' was merged into the short-lived ''New York World Journal Tribune'' and ceased publication, but the Whitney family kept the Paris paper going through partnerships. In December 1966 ''The Washington Post'' became a joint owner. ''The New York Times'' became a joint owner of the ''Paris Herald Tribune'' in May 1967, whereupon the newspaper became known as the ''International Herald Tribune'' (IHT).〔 In 1974, IHT began transmitting facsimile pages of the paper between nations and opened a printing site near London. In 1977 the paper opened a second site in Zürich. IHT began transmitting electronic images of newspaper pages from Paris to Hong Kong via satellite in 1980, making the paper simultaneously available on opposite sides of the planet. This was the first such intercontinental transmission of an English-language daily newspaper and followed the pioneering efforts of the Chinese-language newspaper ''Sing Tao Daily (星島日報)''. In 1991, ''The Washington Post'' and ''The New York Times'' became sole and equal shareholders of IHT. In February 2005 it opened its Asia newsroom in Hong Kong. In April 2001, the Japanese newspaper ''Asahi Shimbun (朝日新聞)'' tied up with IHT and published an English-language newspaper, the ''International Herald Tribune/Asahi Shimbun''.〔The Diplomat TOKYO NOTES (December 7, 2010). (Asahi to Drop English Daily ).
