In 1993, The Herald converted to a morning publication to serve better the needs of southwest Georgia.^[3]

In 2005 Gray's newspaper holdings were spun off into a separate company which was named Triple Crown Media.^[4] Triple Crown Media changed its name to Southern Community Newspapers Incorporated in 2010.^[5]

The Herald announced in October 2012 that it would cease its printing operation in Albany and cut 26 jobs. The paper is printed by Gannett Company at the Tallahassee Democrat.^[6]
