So You Want to Break Up With The Dallas Morning News? There's No Shame in Saying "See Ya Later" (But Maybe Call First)
Listen, we've all been there. You swipe right on a subscription thinking it'll be your forever news source, but then, well, things just fizzle out. Maybe you've moved on to a different city (hello, Austin!), or perhaps their headlines just aren't hitting the spot anymore. Whatever the reason, it's time to say goodbye to The Dallas Morning News (DMN) – and hey, there's no need to ghost them!
Before We Dive In: A Word on Commitment
Tip: Don’t just glance — focus.
Now, the DMN might try to guilt trip you a little during the cancellation process. They might remind you of all the hard-hitting journalism they do, the tireless investigative reports, and the oh-so-important updates on Big Tex's wardrobe malfunction (a national crisis, truly). But fear not, brave news-reader, we're here to guide you through this breakup with minimal emotional manipulation.
Tip: Don’t just scroll — pause and absorb.

| How To Cancel Dallas Morning News |
Alright, Alright, Alright. Here's How to Do This Thing:
There are two main paths to cancellation bliss, depending on where your love affair with the DMN began:
QuickTip: Don’t just scroll — process what you see.
-
The Digital Detox: Did you sign up for the online subscription with the click of a button fueled by a strong cup of coffee? Then, my friend, the solution is equally simple. Call their customer service line at 1-800-925-1500. Brace yourself for some hold music that might be out of date since the disco era, but eventually, a friendly (or maybe not-so-friendly) voice will be there to help. Be prepared to explain your decision with a tear-jerking story about your newfound love for carrier pigeons (totally optional, but hey, it might work!).
-
The Paper Trail: Did you go old school and get the home delivery, the satisfying thud of the paper hitting your doorstep a daily ritual? Well, in this case, calling customer service is still your best bet. Just dial the same number, 1-800-925-1500, and prepare to explain why even Big Tex himself couldn't convince you to keep getting the paper version anymore (maybe you're saving the planet, one recycled newspaper at a time?).
Important Side Note: Apparently, some states (California, Oregon, Virginia, and Vermont) have laws requiring companies to offer email cancellation for subscriptions. So, if you live in one of these lucky states, you might be able to ditch the phone call altogether and fire off an email to customercare@dallasnews.com. But for everyone else, buckle up for that customer service call.
Tip: Highlight sentences that answer your questions.
Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow (Unless You Really Don't Like Their Headlines)
Look, breaking up with the DMN is totally okay. There are plenty of other news sources out there, both online and in print, waiting to capture your attention. Just remember, if you ever find yourself yearning for the local scoop on that epic kolache showdown or the latest update on the State Fair of Texas butter sculpture (because let's be honest, it's a cultural phenomenon), you can always rekindle the flame. But for now, go forth and conquer the news world, my friend!
