The Daily Worker was a newspaper published in New York City by the Communist Party USA, a Comintern-affiliated organization. Publication began in 1924.[1] While it generally reflected the prevailing views of the party, some attempts were made to make it a paper that reflected the spectrum of left-wing opinion. At its peak, the newspaper achieved a circulation of 35,000. Notable contribu***s to its pages include Robert Minor and Fred Ellis (cartoonists), Lester Rodney (sports edi***), David Karr, Richard Wright, Peter Fryer, Woody Guthrie and Louis Budenz. Budenz held the job of managing edi*** at the Daily Worker, but also served as an agent recruiter for the Soviet intelligence service, then known as the NKVD. While edi***, Budenz partipated in discussions with CPUSA Party Chairman Earl Browder and Soviet intelligence officials on plans for the assassination of exiled former Soviet leader Leon Trotsky.[2]
