Daily News online is on target once again
THERE’S still one winning team left in New York sports.
For the fifth-straight year, the Daily News’ online sports section was voted one of the 10 best in the country by the Associated Press Sports Editors.
“This terrific honor reflects the creativity and hard work of our sports staff, especially the web producers who work tirelessly to keep Daily News readers on top of the games and issues in New York and the entire country,” said Daily News Managing Editor/Sports Teri Thomp- son. “Our columnists, writers, editors and photographers are the best in the business, every day, all day.”
The News joins USA Today, The New York Times, The Oklahoman, The Tuscaloosa News and The Washington Post as the only websites to place in the top 10 every year in the contest’s largest classification of over two million average monthly unique visitors.
Managed by senior sports editor Andy Clayton, NYDN Sports features everything Daily News readers expect from New York’s No. 1 Sports Section, along with online extras including power rankings, live chats with our beat writers, video highlights, photo galleries and our end-of-season staple “Keep ’em or Dump ’em” game. Between the website, Twitter (@NYDNSports) and The News’ free mobile sports app, readers never have to be without the latest news, best columns and trending sports stories that make the Daily News a mustread.
“I am immensely proud of the work done by our sports team, which is second to none. As the latest Comscore figures show, the team’s efforts have helped make the Daily News website a must read not just in New York but across the United States,” Online Editor Ted Young said.
Bernie Augustine, Daniel O’Leary, Jaime Uribarri, Amara Grautski and John Healy round out the Daily News’ digital sports staff.
