The paper's association with Cox began August 15, 1892, when James M. Cox purchased the Dayton Evening Journal. One week later, on August 22, he renamed it the Dayton Daily News.

The next year he combined them to form the Dayton Journal-Herald.

For the next four decades, the Journal-Herald was the conservative morning paper, and the Dayton Daily News (which had a larger circulation) was the liberal evening paper. The papers operated newsrooms on separate floors of the same building in downtown Dayton. On September 15, 1986, the Journal-Herald and the Daily News were merged to become a morning paper, the Dayton Daily News and Journal-Herald, with both names appearing on the front page. The Journal-Herald name last appeared on the paper's front-page flag on December 31, 1987.

The newspaper's editorial position generally has been thought of as liberal, reflecting the historical voting habits of local readers as well as the person who gave the paper its current name, but in recent years the editorial board has favored Republican and Democratic candidates more equally. (Cox was the 1920 candidate for U.S. President, and the city of Dayton has voted for the Democratic candidate in presidential elections since.) For the pop band, see Presidents of the United States of America. ... The Democratic Party is one of two major contemporary political parties in the United States; the other being the Republican Party. ...

In 1998 reporters Russell Carollo and Jeff Nesmith would win the Pulitzer Prize for their reporting on dangerous flaws and mismanagement in the military health care system, a series very relevant to its readership because of the presence of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in neighboring Greene County. 1998 (MCMXCVIII) was a common year starting on Thursday of the Gregorian calendar, and was designated the International Year of the Ocean. ...

In 2006, the paper enacted a major editorial redesign intended to attract light, young and occasional readers, based on heavy market research and reader focus groups. The innovative new design attracted both national attention and criticism.

The paper's editorial offices are located in downtown Dayton, but the paper is printed in a modern facility adjoining Interstate 75 in Franklin, Ohio, about fifteen miles to the south. The downtown operations are scheduled to move to a former NCR Corp. building in southern Dayton, close to suburban Oakwood, in early 2007. Interstate 75 (abbreviated I-75) is an interstate highway in the midwest and southeastern United States. ... Franklin is a city located in Warren County, Ohio. ...
