Which of the following is NOT a daily newspaper?

• A. The New York Times
• B. CNN
• C. The Washington Post
• D. The Daily Mail

Answer: (B)

Understanding what counts as a daily newspaper means recognizing the format and how often it’s published. A daily newspaper is a periodical that is released every day in a newspaper format and covers a broad range of news. CNN is a cable news network, not a newspaper, and while it publishes online content and daily news, it is not a traditional newspaper. The other three—The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Daily Mail—are established daily newspapers with daily print editions (and extensive online presence). So the choice that isn’t a daily newspaper is the news network, not a newspaper.
