A revised analysis of charges by the American Jewish Congress that the New York “Daily News” has been prejudiced in its handling of news about Jews and Negroes was introduced yesterday at a Federal Communications Commission hearing on the granting of a frequency modulation radio license to the newspaper.
The analysis, a more detailed and corrected study of charges originally introduced at a hearing in New York, is based on a comparison of news items appearing in “The News” with similar items printed in four other New York papers. The Congress is asking the FCC not to grant the license to the “Daily News” on grounds that it would not be in the public interest.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
