The ''Dallas Times Herald'', founded in 1888 by a merger of the ''Dallas Times'' and the ''Dallas Herald'', was once one of two major daily newspapers serving the Dallas, Texas (USA) area. It won three Pulitzer Prizes, all for photography, and two George Polk Awards, for local and regional reporting. As an afternoon publication for most of its 103 years,〔Handbook of Texas Online, ("Dallas ''Times Herald''," ). Retrieved January 7, 2009.〕 its demise was hastened by the shift of newspaper reading habits to morning papers, the reliance on television for late-breaking news,〔 as well as the loss of an antitrust lawsuit against crosstown rival ''The Dallas Morning News'' after the latter's parent company bought the rights to 26 United Press Syndicate features that previously had been running in the ''Times Herald''. MediaNews Group bought the ''Times Herald'' from the Times Mirror corporation in 1986; Times Mirror had owned the paper since 1969. MediaNews sold off the paper in 1988. According to Burl Osborne, the former publisher of the ''Morning News'', the ''Times Herald'' shut itself down on December 8, 1991. The next day, Belo, owner of the ''Morning News'', bought the ''Times Herald'' assets for $55 million. ==Pulitzer Prizes== *1964 -- Robert H.
