morning paper

Dawn's news delivery

A morning paper is a newspaper published and distributed early in the day, typically before people leave for work.

The term distinguishes it from evening editions, though most papers now publish only in the morning: He reads the morning paper with his coffee.

The phrase evokes a traditional daily ritual increasingly replaced by digital news.
