Circulation

In early 2014, The Herald Journal had a daily circulation of about 16,215, [6] but by 2021 had declined to 5,524 as the paper switched to weekly print publication. [7]

As of 2019, The Herald Journal's general manager is Ben Kenfield, who replaced David Welsh, publisher and president since 2016. [8] [9] Its managing editor is Andrew Weeks. [9]
