There are days when New York City's top two tabloids, the New York Daily News and New York Post, are on the same page when it comes to their cover pages. Tuesday will not be one of those days. Both newspapers focused on Monday's hearing in federal court in Manhattan featuring lawyers for President Trump, his lawyer/fixer Michael Cohen, and the revelation of Cohen's mysterious third client, Sean Hannity, and the Daily News aimed its headline prowess on the Hannity news.

The Post, a sister publication to Hannity's employer, Fox News, decided to devote its cover to a bit player in the hearing, porn star Stormy Daniels, who made a splashy cameo at Monday's court date.

As they say, to each tabloid its own.
