Whenever a story happens, the Planet gets it first and has it webbed and in print while the New York Times is still fishing for sources.

Notes
- The Daily Planet was also the name of a column appearing in DC Comics to advertise upcoming projects.
- Discrepancies between Earth-Two and the actual Golden Age stories caused E. Nelson Bridwell to suggest the existence of an "Alternate Earth-Two" (Earth-Two-A) which was formally canonized in The Official Crisis on Infinite Earths Index (March 1986). Strickly speaking there wasn't an Earth-Two Daily Planet.
Trivia
