The Daily News (Memphis)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Daily News is a business and legal newspaper covering Shelby County, Tennessee, including the largest city in the county, Memphis, Tennessee. The Daily News, which is published Monday through Friday, is the paper of record for the county. It was founded in 1886 and is the successor to three legal newspapers: The Daily Record, The Daily Court Reporter, and The Daily Court News.

The Daily News includes public notices, public records and editorial content. Public notices include notices such as notices of foreclosure, notices of tax sales, and notices of government bids. Public records include records such as real estate transactions, court filings, court calendars, and business licenses. Editorial content includes news of general interest, including legal news, business news and coverage of local government. Similar papers are frequently published in cities similar in size to Memphis but are more often published as weeklies, making the Daily News somewhat unusual.
