Talk:New York World-Telegram

Displaced
'The World-Telegram enjoyed a reputation as a liberal paper for some years after the merger, based on memories of the Pulitzer-owned World''. However, under Scripps Howard the paper moved steadily to the right, eventually becoming a conservative bastion described by the press critic A.J. Liebling as "Republican, anti-labor, and suspicious of anything European." (Liebling also called the paper "the organ of New York's displaced persons (displaced from the interior of North America.)'''

I'm somewhat puzzled by this: Are 'Displaced Persons' Native Americans or say, the inhabitants of the Upper East Side ?
