Her idea was to publish a suburban daily for Long Island, where she and Guggenheim lived in a 30-room Norman mansion in fashionable Sands Point. What she had in mind was something "readable, entertaining, comprehensive, informative, interpretive, lively, but still sufficiently serious-minded so that no Long Islander will feel compelled to read any New York newspaper."
