PM (newspaper)
''PM'' was a liberal-leaning daily newspaper published in New York City by Ralph Ingersoll from June 1940 to June 1948 and financed by Chicago millionaire Marshall Field III. The paper borrowed many elements from weekly news magazines, such as many large photos and at first was bound with staples. In an attempt to be free of pressure from business interests, it did not accept advertising. These departures from the norms of newspaper publishing created excitement in the industry.

(There is no historical evidence for the suggestion that the name was an abbreviation of ''Picture Magazine''.) The first year of the paper was a ...
