DAILY WORLD

formerly Daily Worker (192458), or The Worker (195868) daily newspaper published in New York City that generally reflects the views of the Communist Party of the United States. The Daily Worker was variously the organ and the semi-official voice of the party, and its readers have included numerous U.S. government intelligence agents, who also have monitored its list of subscribers. In 1958 the paper became a weekly as The Worker. A decade later it resumed daily publication Tuesdays through Saturdays and changed names again in an effort to reach a broader audience as the Daily World. It has consistently featured coverage of societal developments and labour news, with editorials and political commentary reflecting the views of the Communist Party. In the United Kingdom a similarly oriented Daily Worker was published in London and for similar reasons was renamed the Morning Star.
