The Newsday Crossword is a popular branch of the Long Island & New York publication, Newsday, which has been published since September 1940. A bit about the publication first, Newsday is a strong Long Island advocate, investing into the island’s future with a 130,000 square foot state-of-the-art TV studio. The publication costs $1 for five months, and then $6.99 a week from there onwards, meaning to play the Newsday Crossword, you must be a paying subscriber of the Newsday publication.
However, if you are a paying subscriber, you can enjoy the many puzzles on offer within the Newsday website or the app. The Newsday Sunday & daily crossword has been a popular go-to for many years, with the American puzzle creator, Stanley Newman, being the editor of the Sunday crossword since 1988 and the Newsday daily since 1992.
The Newsday Crossword essentially works in a way where you get 10 points for each correct word, but revealing letters or words will cost you points, and if you reveal a word entirely, you get no points at all.
