In the original series, Archie Bunker only read the Daily News, a tabloid-sized newspaper. Here, he is seen holding an oversized-format paper typically used by the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times, neither of which Archie would ever read. (Note: Archie's favorite newspaper was the National Enquirer, which typically used the oversized format).
