“For over 200 years, the New York Post has been America’s go-to source”
DISPUTED
The claim states the New York Post has been in operation for over 200 years. However, the New York Post was founded in 1841. As of 2024, it has been in operation for approximately 183 years, which is not 'over 200 years'. The cross-references provided are self-referential claims from the Nypost itself, which are factually incorrect based on the publication's known founding date.
