The New York Times Company is an American mass-media company that publishes The New York Times , its associated publications, and other media properties. Its headquarters are in Manhattan, New York City. [5]

History

The company was founded by Henry Jarvis Raymond and George Jones in New York City. The first edition of the newspaper The New York Times , published on September 18, 1851, stated: "We publish today the first issue of the New-York Daily Times, and we intend to issue it every morning (Sundays excepted) for an indefinite number of years to come." [6]

The company moved into the cable channel industry, purchasing a 40% interest in the Popcorn Channel, a theatrical movie preview and local movie times, in November 1994. [7] In 1996, it expanded upon its broadcasting by purchasing Palmer Communications, owners of WHO-DT in Des Moines and KFOR in Oklahoma City. [8]

The company completed its purchase of The Washington Post 's 50 percent interest in the International Herald Tribune (IHT) for US$65 million on January 1, 2003, becoming the sole owner. [9]

On March 18, 2005, the company acquired About.com, an online provider of consumer information, for US$410 million. [10] In 2005, the company reported revenues of US$3.4 billion to its investors. [11]

The Times, on August 25, 2006, acquired Baseline StudioSystems, an online database and research service on the film and television industries for US$35 million. [12]

The company announced on September 12, 2006, its decision to sell its Broadcast Media Group, consisting of "nine network-affiliated television stations, their related Web sites and the digital operating center". [13] The New York Times reported on January 4, 2007, that the company had reached an agreement to sell all nine local television stations to the private equity firm Oak Hill Capital Partners, which then created a holding company for the stations, Local TV LLC. [14] [15] The company announced that it had finalized the sale of its Broadcast Media Group on May 7, 2007, for "approximately $575 million". [15]

On May 7, 2007, the company announced that its About.com web information service was acquiring Consumersearch.com, a Web site that compiles reviews of consumer products, for $33 million in cash. [16]

In 2007, the company moved from 229 West 43rd Street to the New York Times Building at 620 Eighth Avenue, on the west side of Times Square, between 40th and 41st streets across from the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey Bus Terminal. [17]

On July 14, 2009, the company announced that WQXR was to be sold to WNYC, which moved the station to 105.9 FM and began to operate the station noncommercially on October 8, 2009. This US$45 million transaction, which involved Univision Radio's WCAA moving to the 96.3 FM frequency from 105.9 FM, ended the Times' 65-year-long ownership of the station. [18]

In December 2011, the company sold its Regional Media Group to Halifax Media Group, owners of The Daytona Beach News-Journal , for $143 million. The Boston Globe and The Telegram & Gazette of Worcester were not part of the sale. [19] In 2011, the Times sold Baseline StudioSystems back to its original owners, Laurie S. Silvers and Mitchell Rubenstein, majority shareholders of Project Hollywood LLC. [12]

Facing falling revenue from print advertising in its flagship publication in 2011, The New York Times, the company introduced a paywall to its website. As of 2012, it had been modestly successful, garnering several hundred thousand subscriptions and about $100 million in annual revenue. [20]

In 2013, the New York Times Company sold The Boston Globe and other New England media properties to John W. Henry, the principal owner of the Boston Red Sox. According to the Times Company, the move was made in order to focus more on its core brands. [21] [22]

After forming an editorial partnership with the New York Times in 2015, [23] The Wirecutter was acquired by the Times in October 2016 for a reported $30 million.

In March 2020, the New York Times Company acquired subscription-based audio app, Audm. [24]

In July 2020, the New York Times Company acquired podcast production company Serial Productions. [25] The same month, the company appointed chief operating officer Meredith Kopit Levien to the position of CEO. [26]

In February 2022, the New York Times Company bought The Athletic , a subscription-based sports news website, for $550 million. [27] Its founders, Alex Mather and Adam Hansmann, stayed with the publication, which is run separately from the Times. [28] Later that month, it acquired Wordle, an Internet word puzzle game that grew from 90 players in October 2021 to millions at the time of purchase. [29]

ValueAct Capital took a stake in the company in August 2022. [30] ValueAct aims to encourage the company to more actively pursue the sale of "bundled" subscriptions to its various offerings. [30]

Radio stations

The paper bought AM radio station WQXR (1560 kHz) in 1944. [31] Its "sister" FM station, WQXQ, became WQXR-FM (96.3 MHz). Branded as "The Stereo Stations of The New York Times", its classical music radio format was simulcast on both the AM & FM frequencies until December 1992, when the big-band and pop standards music format of station WNEW (1130 kHz – now WBBR/"Bloomberg Radio") was transferred to and adopted by WQXR; in recognition of the format change, WQXR changed its call letters to WQEW (a "hybrid" combination of "WQXR" and "WNEW"). [32] By 1999, The New York Times was leasing WQEW to ABC Radio for its "Radio Disney" format. [33] In 2007, WQEW was finally purchased by Disney; in late 2014, it was sold to Family Radio (a religious radio network) and became WFME. [34] In 2009, WQXR-FM was sold to the WNYC radio group and, on October 8, moved from 96.3 to 105.9 MHz (swapping frequencies with Spanish-language station WXNY-FM, which wanted the more powerful transmitter to increase its coverage) and began operating it as a noncommercial, public radio station. [35]

Holdings

Alongside its namesake newspaper, the company owns The New York Times International Edition and related digital properties including NYTimes.com, as well as various brand-related properties. [36]

Ownership and leadership

Since September 25, 1997, the company has been listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol NYT. From April 27, 1967, until January 13, 1969, the company's Class A common stock traded over the counter. From January 14, 1969, until September 24, 1997, the shares were traded on the American Stock Exchange. [37] Of the two categories of stock, Class A and Class B, the former is publicly traded and the latter is held privately—largely (over 90% through The 1997 Trust) by the descendants of Adolph Ochs, who purchased The New York Times newspaper in 1896. [38]

Carlos Slim loan and investment

On January 20, 2009, The New York Times reported that its parent company, the New York Times Company, had reached an agreement to borrow $250 million from Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim, "to help the newspaper company finance its businesses". [39] The New York Times Company later repaid that loan ahead of schedule. [40] Since then, Slim has bought large quantities of the company's Class A shares, which are available for purchase by the public and offer less control over the company than Class B shares, which are privately held. [40] Slim's investments in the company included large purchases of Class A shares in 2011, when he increased his stake in the company to 8.1% of Class A shares, [41] and again in 2015, when he exercised stock options—acquired as part of a repayment plan on the 2009 loan—to purchase 15.9 million Class A shares, making him the largest shareholder. [40] [42] As of March 7, 2016, Slim owned 17.4% of the company's Class A shares, according to annual filings submitted by the company. [43] [44] While Slim is the largest shareholder in the company, his investment only allows him to vote for Class A directors, a third of the company's board. [40]

In 2007, it inaugurated its first Nonprofit Excellence Award, awarded to four organizations "for the excellence of their management practices". Only nonprofits in New York City, Long Island, or Westchester were eligible. [46]

Jointly with the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the American Library Association, the New York Times Company sponsors an award to honor librarians "for service to their communities". The I Love My Librarian! award was given to ten recipients in December 2008, and presented by the New York Times Company president and CEO Janet L. Robinson, Carnegie Corporation president Vartan Gregorian, and Jim Rettig, president of the American Library Association. The award has been given to ten exceptional librarians annually since that date. [47]

In May 2009, the company launched The New York Times Outstanding Playwright Award to honor an American playwright who had recently had his or her professional debut in New York. [48] The first winner was Tarell Alvin McCraney for his play "The Brothers Size". [49] In 2010, Dan LeFranc won for his play "Sixty Miles to Silver Lake". [50]

Controversies

On April 15, 2024, The Intercept published a copy of an internal memo obtained that asserts the New York Times newspaper told its journalists and editors to avoid using the terms “genocide,” “ethnic cleansing,” “occupied territory,” or "refugee camps," when covering Israel’s war in Gaza. The memo — written by Times standards editor Susan Wessling, international editor Philip Pan, and their deputies — “offers guidance about some terms and other issues we have grappled with since the start of the conflict in October”. The memo states that the Times reporters had been instructed not to use the word Palestine “except in very rare cases”. The memo also instructed the Times reporters not to describe the Palestinian lands captured by Israel as “occupied territories”. [51] [52]
