a pattern for the future by appealing to a cultured, intellectual readership instead of a mass audience However, in the late nineteenth century, it came into competition with more popular, colorful, if not lurid, newspapers in New York City Their publishers ran sensational stories, not because they were true, but because they sold newspapers Despite price increases, the time was losing £1,000 a week when Adolph Simon Ochs bought it in 1896.Ochs built the Times into an internationally respected daily He hired Carr Van Anda as editor Van Anda placed greater stress than ever on full reporting of the news of the day, and his reporters maintained and emphasized existing good coverage of international news The management of the paper decided to eliminate fiction from the paper, added a Sunday

of the U.S Constitution Later in the 1970s, the paper, under Adolph Ochs’s grandson, Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, introduced sweeping changes in the organization of the newspaper and its staff and brought out a national edition transmitted by satellite to regional printing plants Question 44: What is the main idea of the passage?
