USA TODAY was conceived in Cocoa Beach, [[Florida]] under the code name "Project NN." After two years of research on what readers wanted, what advertisers needed and what technology permitted, on September 15, 1982, USA TODAY began publication to readers news about the USA in an entirely different way; regionalized content was sent to printing plants in the metro areas where Gannett owned newspapers, via satellite.
The newspaper quickly established itself, selling more than 1.3 million copies a day all across the nation by the end of 1983. Today its daily circulation is approximately 2.3 million, making it the largest-selling daily newspaper in the nation. In 2001, the company moved to a new Gannett/USA TODAY headquarters in McLean, [[Virginia]].<ref>Official site of [http://www.gannett.com/index.html Gannet Company, Inc.]</ref>
