The Athens Banner-Herald was first published in 1832 as the Southern Banner. In 1921, the Banner merged with the Athens Herald to become the Athens Banner-Herald. Starting in 1965, the Banner faced competition from the Athens Daily News. Two years later the Morris family, owners of the Athens Banner-Herald, bought the Athens Daily News. The two newspapers operated as a morning (Daily News) and an afternoon (Banner Herald) newspaper until they merged in 2001.
