Daily News Lowers Newsstand Price

Got a dollar? Got a paper.

NY_DNThe Daily News’ experiment with a higher price tag is over. The paper is lowering its newsstand price from $1.25 to $1.00. The changes will go into effect Jan. 11.

The Daily News raised its price from 75 cents in 2014, much to the delight of rival the New York Post. The Post also sells for $1.00.
