The Herald-Press is the only daily newspaper published in Huntington County, Indiana.

The newspaper was founded in 1848 as the Indiana Herald. In 1887 it was renamed to Huntington Herald, and in 1930 it merged with Huntington Press and became the Herald-Press. In the early 1960s, the paper was purchased by the family of Dan Quayle, former Vice President of the United States. In May 2007, the Quayle family sold the paper to Paxton Media Group.^[1]
