Description | The Indianapolis Daily Herald, launched in 1865, emerged from the Indiana State Sentinel, initially founded as a Democratic paper by the Chapman brothers in 1841. Under various owners, it evolved from weekly to daily editions, with circulation peaks and shifts in political stance. During the Civil War, it criticized the Republican government and faced turmoil, including the arrest of its editor for treason. Renamed the Indianapolis Daily Sentinel in 1868, it underwent multiple ownership changes, struggling financially. Samuel E. Morss's leadership briefly revived its influence, but competition and financial woes led to its closure in 1906, after adopting a more sensationalist tone.
