[edit] History
Hawkes Bay Today was launched on May 3, 1999, a merger of the dailies the Herald-Tribune in Hastings and Napier's Daily Telegraph. Its earliest incarnation was "a Saturday morning weekly named the Hawkes Bay Herald and Ahuriri Advocate, which first rolled off the presses in Napier on September 24, 1857," according to the company website.
The Saturday evening Hawkes Bay Today was discontinued in 2002 to make way for the new weekend edition published on Saturday mornings.
In 2005 the local news content of the Dannevirke News was merged with Hawkes Bay Today. Copies of Hawkes Bay Today circulating in the Dannevirke area now carry a minimum of four local pages of news and advertising wrapped around the main section of the paper.
