William H. Michael explains that the decision of which New York papers may print death notices is determined by “the political complexion of the administration.” Michael lists the New York Star, Tribune, World, Sun, and Mail and Express as newspapers that have been charged with publishing the death notices since the first Grover Cleveland administration, depending on the political party in power.
