The New Jersey Herald will end a long tradition on April 2 when its printing operations will be moved to North Jersey Media Group's facilities in Rockaway. North Jersey Media, owner of the Bergen Record, also prints USA Today, the Gannett Westchester-Rockland newspapers, and a variety of weekly newspapers in the region.

Herald Publisher Jack Findley said the economics of running and maintaining the Herald's aging presses, and the efficiencies gained by running on state-of-the-art presses in Rockaway, made continuing to print at the Herald's Newton plant unfeasible.
