  The Once Great Newark Evening News: A Remembrance & Obituary
From the time of the Newark News strike settlement in April 1972 until the paper ceased publication on August 31, 1972, the daily editions of the Newark Evening News were printed on Star-Ledger presses.
Its coverage was statewide, and it had dozens of news bureaus scattered throughout the state, with local staffers on the scene, a large Trenton bureau in the State Capital before other New Jersey papers ever got to Trenton, and a bureau in Washington, D. As a political paper, the News wielded enormous influence.
The Newark News files are ranked as one of the most important historical resources in the State of New Jersey, and a major contribution to the study and preservation of New Jersey history.
