More on United Daily News
Description from Wikipedia:
The United Daily News (聯合報; pinyin: Liánhé Bào) is a newspaper published in the Republic of China in both traditional and Simplified chinese. It is one of the three biggest newspapers in Taiwan, the other two being the China Times and the Liberty Times.
UDN was founded in 1951 by Wang Tiwu (王惕吾) as a merger of three newspapers, Popular Daily (全民日報), National (民族報), and the Economic Times (經濟時報). The three newspapers formally merged in 1953.
In terms of political orientation, UDN is supposedly Pan-Blue.
UDN was and to some extent still is a place to publish literature in the Lianhe Fukan literary supplement.
In terms of editorial style and standards, UDN is the most literary of Taiwan's newspapers; the Chinese used is baihua vernacular but heavily incorporating usages from classical wenyan Chinese. Once praised for its high standards, UDN has faced stiff competition in recent years, resulting in lowered readership and less money available for proof-reading.
UDN has spawned a group of newspapers, including UDN evening edition and UDN international edition.
The publisher is now Wang Tiwu's daughter, Shaw-Lan Wang. (王效蘭).
General editors over the years:
*Guan Jiemin (關潔民) 1951-
*Liu Changping (劉昌平) 1953-
*Ma Keren (馬克任) 1964-
*Wang Jipu (王繼樸) 1971-
*Zhang Zuojin (張作錦) 1975-
*Zhao Yuming (趙玉明) 1981-
*Liu Guorui (劉國瑞) 1984-
*Huang Nian (黃年) 1988-
*Hu Litai (胡立台) 1990-
*Zhang Yidong (張逸東) 1993-
*Xiang Guoning (項國寧) 1996-
*Huang Sujuan (黃素娟) 2001-
By tradition, general editors are installed on September 16, the anniversary of UDN's founding.
