We bring you breaking and community news, as well as great deals from our advertisers, every week, and now, thanks to our alliance with The New York Daily News, we’ll be bringing you a full-color newspaper beginning in August.
The Queens Courier, Courier Sun and El Correo newspapers will now be printed on the Daily News’s state-of-the-art, high-volume full-color press equipment.
“In our efforts to bring the finest news and newspaper to our readers, we are delighted to be able to deliver to them the state-of-the-art quality of the Daily News presses, the finest in the country, if not the world,” said Victoria Schneps-Yunis, publisher, The Queens Courier.
In 2009, the Daily News became the first major market daily newspaper in the United States to be produced in 100 percent color on new press equipment manufactured by KBA, a global leader in printing technology.
In announcing the acquisition of the new printing technology, Mortimer B. Zuckerman, Daily News chairman and publisher, explained that the print quality of the Daily News will be head-and-shoulders above the competition and equal to any newspaper in the world.
“It will . . . raise the bar on newspaper production in the United States,” he said.
The new KBA presses, which are capable of replicating any color in the Pantone color spectrum, will provide Queens Courier advertisers with unprecedented opportunities to run high-resolution, full-color images on any page in the paper, in any size. In addition to unlimited color capacity, the new presses provide top-quality reproduction, stitching and inserting capabilities. Businesses will also have an opportunity for front cover peel-off advertisements.
“We’re tremendously excited to begin printing The Queens Courier group of publications, including The Queens Courier, Courier Sun and El Correo de Queens,” said Daily News CEO Marc Z. Kramer. "Readers of these papers will soon see the full color print quality that only the Daily News can produce.”
Advertisers’ demands for high-quality color are a worldwide phenomenon, and nowhere is it in more demand than in New York, the media capital of the world.
“Our advertisers will have the opportunity for eye-catching ads in four color reproduction, meaning that their message will ‘pop off the page’ and we know it will help them to grow their business,” explained Joshua Schneps, co-publisher, The Queens Courier.
