Daily News
Daily Newswas founded by Dickens in 1845 as a Liberal rival to the Morning Chronicle ; the first issue appeared on 21 Jan. 1846 . Dickens himself edited the paper for 17 numbers only, then handed over to John Forster . Among notable contributors and members of its staff at various times may be mentioned H. Martineau , Lang , G. B. Shaw , Wells , Arnold Bennett , and the eminent war correspondent Archibald Forbes ( 1839 – 1900 ). It became the News Chronicle in 1930 , having absorbed the Daily Chronicle, and survived under this title until 1960 .
