New York World
The New York World was a notable newspaper published in New York City from 1860 to 1931. American author Paul Collins described the paper's now demolished headquarters in the New York World Building at 53-63 Park Row in New York City in his nonfiction book The Murder of the Century. - AsNotedIn
Walking along a vast Park Row newsroom so crammed with rolltop desk that it was nearly barricaded, one could read panel after panel on walls placarded with exhortations:
ACCURACY, ACCURACY, ACCURACY!
and
WHO? WHAT? WHERE? WHEN? HOW?
And:
THE FACTS - THE COLOR - THE FACTS!
These continued around the perimeter of the room, so that every direction a reporter looked, the World credo was shouted at him.
