2. U.S. daily national newspaper, the most influential American
   business-oriented paper and one of the most respected dailies
   in the world. Established in 1889 by Charles H. Dow, founder of
   Dow Jones & Co., it quickly won success. Beginning in the Great
   Depression, The Wall Street Journal began to feature more
   articles, reviews, and opinion on other subjects. Published in
   New York City and with regional editions printed across the
   country, it has one of the highest daily circulations of any U.S.
   newspaper. It is also published in Asian, European, and other
   special editions.
