''The Dallas Morning News'' was founded in 1885 as a spin-off of the ''[[Galveston Daily News]]'' by [[Alfred Horatio Belo]]. In 1926, the Belo family sold a majority interest in the paper to its longtime publisher, [[George Dealey]]. By the 1920s, ''The Dallas Morning News'' had grown larger than the ''Galveston Daily News'' and had become a progressive force in Dallas and Texas.<ref name=":0" /> [[Adolph Ochs]], who saved ''The New York Times'' from bankruptcy in 1896 and made the newspaper into one of the country's most respected, said in 1924 that he had been strongly influenced by ''The Dallas Morning News''.<ref name=":0" />

During the 1920s, when the [[Ku Klux Klan]] was a powerful force in Dallas, ''The Dallas Morning News'' pushed back against the KKK with its news coverage and editorials.<ref name=":0" /> In turn, the KKK, which had a membership that included one in three eligible Dallas men, threatened to boycott the newspaper.<ref name=":0" />

In 1904, ''The Dallas Morning News'' began publishing the ''[[Texas Almanac]]'', which had previously been published intermittently during the 1800s by the ''Galveston Daily News''. After over a century of publishing by the ''Morning News'', the ''Almanac''<nowiki/>'s assets were given to the [[Texas State Historical Association]] in May 2008.<ref>"[https://texasalmanac.com/about-us About us]", ''Texas Almanac'' ([[Texas State Historical Association]]).

By the late 1940s, the ''Morning News'' had built and opened a new office, newsroom, and printing plant at Houston and Young Streets on the southwest side of [[downtown Dallas]]. A notable part of the facade above the front doors includes a quote etched in the stony exterior:
::::::<blockquote>BUILD THE NEWS UPON<br>THE ROCK OF TRUTH<br>AND RIGHTEOUSNESS<br>CONDUCT IT ALWAYS<br>UPON THE LINES OF<br>FAIRNESS AND INTEGRITY<br>ACKNOWLEDGE THE RIGHT<br>OF THE PEOPLE TO GET<br>FROM THE NEWSPAPER<br>BOTH SIDES OF EVERY<br>IMPORTANT QUESTION<br>{{nb5}}{{nb5}}{{nb5}}{{nb5}}{{nb5}}<small>G. B. DEALEY</small></blockquote>
The complex at 508 Young Street would house all or part of the ''Morning News'' operations for the next six decades.

In late 1991, ''The Dallas Morning News'' became the lone major newspaper in the Dallas market when the ''[[Dallas Times Herald]]'' was closed after several years of circulation wars between the two papers, especially over the then-burgeoning classified advertising market. In July 1986, the ''Times Herald'' was purchased by [[William Dean Singleton]], owner of [[MediaNews Group]]. After 18 months of efforts to turn the paper around, Singleton sold it to an associate. On December 8, 1991, [[Belo Corporation]] bought the ''Times Herald'' for $55 million, closing the paper the next day.

It was not the first time the Belo family had bought and closed a paper named ''[[Dallas Herald|The Herald]]'' in Dallas.{{blockquote|[In]...1879 Alfred H. Belo was investigating the possibility of establishing a sister paper in rapidly developing North Texas. When Belo's efforts to purchase the ''Herald'' [an extant paper in Dallas] failed, he sent [[George Bannerman Dealey]] to launch a new paper, the ''Morning News'', which began publication on October 1, 1885. From the outset the ''Morning News'' enjoyed the double advantage of strong financial support and an accumulation of journalistic experience, and within a month and a half had absorbed its older rival.<ref>{{Handbook of Texas | id=fbe44 | name=Belo, Alfred Horatio (1839–1901)}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url = https://tshaonline.org/day-by-day/30294 | title = Dallas Morning News buys out rival paper | orig-date = 1885-03-12 | date = n.d. | website = [[Texas State Historical Association]] | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20101205024251/http://www.tshaonline.org/day-by-day/30294 | archive-date = 2010-12-05 | access-date = 2022-02-11 | url-status = dead | quote = On this day in 1885, the Dallas Morning News bought out its major competitor, the Dallas Herald.

By 1879 Alfred H. Belo, who had acquired control of the business, was investigating the possibility of establishing a sister paper in rapidly developing North Texas. When Belo's efforts to purchase the Herald failed, he sent George Bannerman Dealey to launch a new paper, the Morning News, which began publication on October 1, 1885.

[[File:Aldianewspaperlogo.png|thumb|left|90px|''Al Día'' logo]]In 2003, ''The Dallas Morning News'' launched a [[Spanish-language]] newspaper called ''[[Al Día (Dallas)|Al Día]]'' .  Initially ''Al Día'' came with a purchase price, but it was later made available free.  It was published twice a week, on Wednesday and Saturday.<ref>"[http://www.aldiadallas.com/periodico-al-dia/ Sobre nosotros/About us]", Aldiadallas.com.

Between 2003 and 2011, a [[Tabloid (newspaper format)|tabloid]]-sized publication called ''[[Quick (newspaper)|Quick]]'' was published by ''The Dallas Morning News'', which initially focused on general news in a quick-read, digest form, but in later years covered mostly entertainment and lifestyle stories.

In late 2013, ''The Dallas Morning News'' ended its longtime news-gathering collaboration with previously co-owned TV station [[WFAA]]. The newspaper entered into a new partnership with [[KXAS-TV|KXAS]] at that time.<ref>{{cite news|title=The Dallas Morning News and Channel 5 form partnership|url=http://www.dallasnews.com/business/headlines/20131219-the-dallas-morning-news-and-channel-5-form-partnership.ece|author=Sheryl Jean|newspaper=The Dallas Morning News|date=December 19, 2013|access-date=December 10, 2018}}</ref>

In late 2016, ''The Dallas Morning News'' announced it would move away from its home of 68 years on Young Street to a much-smaller [[Old Dallas Central Library|building]] on Commerce Street previously used as the Dallas Public Library's downtown branch. Reasons given for the move included technology innovations and fewer staff, as well as printing presses no longer co-located with the newsroom and main offices.<ref>Jeffrey Weiss, "[https://www.dallasnews.com/business/real-estate/2016/10/06/dallas-morning-news-plans-crosstown-moveto-historic-statler-library-redevelopment Dallas Morning News plans crosstown move to historic Statler Library redevelopment]", ''The Dallas Morning News'', October 6, 2016.

Changes were announced in January 2019, which included layoffs and reducing the paper's Business section to one separate section per week, on Sundays; the remainder of the week, Business coverage was placed in the paper's Metro section. A total of 43 employees were affected by the move.{{r|Shinneman_20190107}}{{r|Roush_20190107}}

In late February 2019, several printing agreements were not renewed at the ''Morning News''<nowiki/>' suburban printing plant, and 92 positions were affected by the change there. Publications that had to find a different printing partner included the ''[[Dallas Observer]]'' and ''[[Fort Worth Weekly]]''.{{r|Halkias_20190228}}

[[DallasNews Corporation]], the paper's owner, announced on Sept. 13, 2023, it would offer buyouts eliminating up to 40 jobs, a 6% reduction in staff count.
