===North America=== [[File:Finest picture front page.jpg|thumb|"A photographer's photographer" quote by First Lady [[Florence Harding]], who stated the Edward Jackson's photograph of her was "the best photo ever taken." The photo ran on the entire front page of the February 5, 1921 edition of the ''[[New York Daily News]]''.]] In [[Canada]] many newspapers of [[Postmedia]]'s ''Sun'' brand are in tabloid format including ''[[The Province]]'', a newspaper for the [[British Columbia]] market. The Canadian publisher [[Black Press]] publishes newspapers in the provinces of British Columbia and Alberta in both tabloid ({{convert|10+1/4|in|mm|0|abbr=on}} wide by {{convert|14+1/2|in|mm|0|abbr=on}} deep) and what it calls "tall tab" format, where the latter is {{convert|10+1/4|in|mm|0|abbr=on}} wide by {{convert|16+1/4|in|mm|0|abbr=on}} deep, larger than tabloid but smaller than the broadsheets it also publishes.<ref>{{cite web |title=2007 Retail Advertising Rates |url=http://www.bcnewsgroup.com/BlackPress/advertising/ratecards/2007_Island_Retail.pdf |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090327201505/http://www.bcnewsgroup.com/BlackPress/advertising/ratecards/2007_Island_Retail.pdf |archive-date=27 March 2009 }}</ref> In the [[History of American newspapers|United States]], daily tabloids date back to the founding of the ''[[New York Daily News]]'' in 1919, followed by the ''[[New York Daily Mirror]]'', and the ''[[New York Evening Graphic]]'' in the 1920s. Competition among those three for crime, sex and celebrity news was considered a scandal to the mainstream press of the day. The tabloid format is used by a number of respected and indeed prize-winning American papers. Prominent U.S. tabloids include the ''[[New York Post]]'', the ''[[Daily News (New York)|Daily News]]'' and ''[[Newsday]]'' in New York, the ''[[San Francisco Examiner]]'', ''[[The Bakersfield Californian]]'' and ''[[La Opinión]]'' in [[California]], ''[[The Jersey Journal]]'' and ''[[The Trentonian]]'' in New Jersey, the ''[[Philadelphia Daily News]]'', the ''[[Delaware County Daily Times]]'' and ''[[The Citizens' Voice]]'', ''[[The Burlington Free Press]]'', ''[[The Oregonian]]'', the ''[[Chicago Sun-Times]]'', and the ''[[Boston Herald]]''. US tabloids that ceased publication include Denver's ''[[Rocky Mountain News]]''.
