The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) is an international newspaper published every day by a company called Dow Jones & Company. It is published in New York City with Asian and European editions. In 2007, more than two million people read it daily, and about 931,000 people read in on its website.[2] In the past, it was the most popular newspaper in the United States (the newspaper that the most people read in the country). However, USA Today became the most popular newspaper in November 2003.

This newspaper has won 37 Pulitzer Prizes,[3] including for reporting in 2019,[4] and to Dorothy Rabinowitz for Commentary in 2001.[5]
