Then you are uneducated in thee way Newspapers are published. Many newspapers publish multiple editions throughout the day.

How common is it for newspapers to print multiple editions in a single day (eg. the late edition)?

The bigger the paper, the more likely it is to happen. Plenty of metropolitan dailies do this — as far as I know, that’s still the norm for metro dailies, though a lot of them put out just a single edition on major holidays.

Large newspapers may publish multiple editions per day, all of which must be ready to leave the newspaper plant at a certain time.

The first edition, sometimes called the bulldog edition, goes to the outer limits of the newspaper's circulation area. This may be several counties or even an entire state.

Later editions contain progressively fresher news and go to smaller areas.

The final edition, which goes to press after midnight, contains the latest news but covers the smallest geographical area, usually a city.
