Holland Sentinel

The Holland Sentinel is the daily newspaper in Holland, Michigan, founded in 1896.

Originally an afternoon paper published six days a week, the paper moved to Saturday mornings and then added a Sunday edition in the late 1980s. In the late 1990s, the paper moved to a morning format.

The Sentinel was owned by Morris Communications from 1995 to October 2007, when it was sold to GateHouse Media.

The Lakeshore Press, a publication of the Grand Rapids Press, was its main competitor, but has since shut down operations.

In the mid 1980s, the Sentinel was a satellite publishing site for the Chicago Tribune.

In the early 2000s, printing operations were moved to the Allegan, Michigan facilities of The Flashes, a weekly advertising only newspaper that Morris Communications had purchased a few years prior.
