The Herald is the voice of Nelson Mandela Bay – in print and online. On May 7 1845, the first copy of The Herald was printed, making it the oldest newspaper in South Africa. The Herald has come a long way since that first printing day when the paper hit the streets at a cover price of a single penny. The Herald publishes fresh news, insights, opinions, sport and entertainment reports all day long, seven days a week on a fully mobile responsive website.
