The Herald-Banner is a seven-day morning daily newspaper published in Greenville, Texas, covering Hunt County.

The newspaper is published by Community Newspaper Holdings. The Herald-Banner also publishes three weekly newspapers; the Commerce Journal, Rockwall County Herald-Banner and Royse City Herald-Banner.[2]

History

Two weeklies, the Greenville Herald (founded in April 1869) and Greenville Banner (1881), competed for readers until 1890, when the Herald converted to a daily, the Greenville Morning Herald. Both newspapers were acquired by Harte-Hanks in 1956, which combined the two.

The American Publishing Company (later Hollinger International) purchased the paper from Worrell Enterprises in 1991; Hollinger sold the paper to Community Newspaper Holdings in 2000.
