NEW YORK — News Corp. is pushing back the launch of the world’s first iPad-only newspaper.
It declined to say why, but a person familiar with the matter said News Corp. and iPad maker Apple are still working out technical details of how subscriptions to the new publication, called The Daily, will work. The source said the holdup will be weeks and not months.
News Corp. has staffed bureaus around the country to provide material for the new publication. It will cover general news, culture and entertainment.
Since it went on sale last year, the iPad has kindled new hopes for professional journalism in the digital age as a new source of ad and subscription revenue. The Associated Press
