The Daily Mail was created by Alfred Harmsworth and his brother Harold. It was first published on May 4 of 1896. It became an immediate success due to its populist tone and more coverage of news than its rivals. It cost a halfpenny at a time compared to other London dailies that cost one penny. The planned issue was 100,000 copies, but the print run on the first day was 397,215. Additional printing facilities had to be acquired to sustain a circulation which rose to 500,000 in 1899. Lord Salisbury, 19th century Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, dismissed the Daily Mail as "a newspaper produced by office boys for office boys. "By 1902, the circulation was over a million, making it the largest newspaper organization in the world. The Daily Mail is a British daily tabloid newspaper owned by the Daily Mail and General Trust. They are published out of London, United Kingdom, but are dispersed internationally through the Internet. It is the United Kingdom's second biggest-selling daily newspaper after The Sun. Jonathan Harmsworth, a great-grandson of the one of the co-founders, is the current chairman and controlling shareholder of the Daily Mail and General Trust. Other editions of the Daily Mail were created: Scottish Daily Mail in 1946, Irish Daily Mail in 2006, Continental and Overseas Daily Mail (which includes Europe and North Africa) in 1905, and Mail Today (which is in India) in 2007.
