Description | The Newark Star-Eagle emerged in 1916 from the merger of the Newark Evening Star and Daily Advertiser and The Newark Eagle and the Newark Star. It pledged independence in politics and outlook, aiming to be the "people's newspaper." The Newark Star Publishing Company, led by Paul Block, Nathanial C. Wright, Herman Halsted, and Harry S. Thalmeimer, oversaw its publication. By 1919, it operated from a modern building with state-of-the-art press equipment, maintaining its one-cent price despite increased costs. Special correspondents across key news centers, including a robust staff in Washington, D.C., ensured comprehensive coverage. S.I. Newhouse acquired the publication in 1939, later integrating it into The Newark Star-Ledger. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1916 of this newspaper. |
