Home > New York World

The New York World was a newspaper published in New York from 1860 until 1931.

The newspaper was unsuccessful until it was purchased by Joseph Pulitzer in 1883. Nellie Bly, a journalist on the title became the first investigative journalist, often working undercover. As a publicity stunt for the paper inspired by Around the World in Eighty Days, she travelled around the planet in 72 days.

In 1896, the newspaper became the first to launch a color supplement . It then joined a circulation battle with the New York Journal .

In 1911, Joseph Pulitzer died, passing control of the title to his son. It declined in popularity until it merged with the Evening Telegram in 1931 as the New York World-Telegram.
