“All the news that’s fit to print,” brags the banner of the New York Times, and that’s not an idle boast. This is the paper of record, and an examination of its archive can answer most questions about New York history. Henry Raymond founded the paper in 1851, and as New York City became the world’s busiest port, the paper gained international recognition. In 1905, the paper built a new office building at 42nd Street and Broadway, and the area was named “Times Square” in their honor. Perhaps the best overall commendation of the newspaper came from President John F. Kennedy, who once said, in reference to his daily CIA briefings, “I don’t think the intelligence reports are all that hot. Some days I get more out of the New York Times.”
