In New York, The Sun began publication on September 3, 1833,  with the slogan "It Shines for All". It only cost one penny, was easy to carry, and its illustrations and crime reporting were popular with working-class readers. It inspired a new genre across the nation known as the penny press making the news more available to lower-income readers at a cheaper price when most papers cost five cents to purchase
