Overview

The newspaper was founded in 1882. For the Herald's first seven years, it was a suburban newspaper covering affairs in an independent unit of local government; after Hyde Park was annexed by Chicago in 1889, the Herald evolved into its current status as an urban neighborhood newspaper.

The Herald covers local business, retail, politics, real estate and housing, the University of Chicago, sports, K–12 education and local Chicago Public Schools, parks (including the Barack Obama Presidential Center), crime, obituaries and fire. Freelancers provide photography and arts coverage.

Key people

The longtime owner of the Hyde Park Herald remains Bruce Sagan. He is father of Paul Sagan, the former CEO of Akamai Technologies. In July 2018, Sagan named Randall Weissman the new publisher.

Future Washington Post columnist David Broder wrote for the Herald while working toward his master's degree from 1947 to 1951. Lee Botts, a prominent Great Lakes environmentalist and a senior official in the administration of President Jimmy Carter, was editor of the Herald in the late 1960s. Democratic political consultant David Axelrod wrote for the paper while a student at the University of Chicago in the 1970s. Beauty Turner, a housing activist, was one of the paper's columnists.

gollark: You can think about this easily by considering where it would be zero.
gollark: Same with the -1 except 1 and not -7.
gollark: If you remember transformations of things at all, then the + 7 inside the || is equivalent to translating everything in the direction of negative real component by 7, so it is now the distance from the point (-7, 0) aka -7 instead.
gollark: So, |z| is the distance from the origin to z.
gollark: Oh, right, I forgot to answer this.
