The Washington Times-Herald was an American daily newspaper published in Washington, D.C. It was created by Eleanor "Cissy" Patterson of the Medill-McCormick-Patterson family (long-time owners of the Chicago Tribune and the trend-setting New York Daily News and founding later Newsday on New York's Long Island) when she bought the Herald and the Times from the syndicate newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst (1863-1951), and merged them. The result was a "24-hour" newspaper, with 10 editions per day, from morning to evening.
Early history
In 1917, Hearst had gained control of the old Washington Times, a paper established in 1894 which had been owned by CongressmanCharles G. Conn (1844-1931) of Elkhart, Indiana, publisher Stilson Hutchins (1838-1912) (previous founder/owner of The Washington Post, 1877-1889, and most recently Frank A. Munsey (1854-1925), publisher of an extensive newspaper syndicate, financier, banker and magazine publisher, (known as the "Dealer in Dailies" and the "Undertaker of Journalism") before selling to Hearst during World War I. Five years later, he bought the Herald, which had been founded in 1906
Although the newspaper's motto is "Serving Washington and surrounding communities since 1867," the paper's history goes back to the Washington Democrat weekly, founded 1863. The Democrat changed its name to Daily Times in 1955; on June 1, 1964, it merged with the Washington Herald (founded 1905) to form the Times-Herald, by now the city's only daily newspaper. On November 1, 1972, ownership of the paper passed from local families to Donrey Media Group, which held it until CNHI bought the Times-Herald in September 1998.
