On February 12, 2007, ImpreMedia announced its purchase of Hoy's New York edition. Hoy's Chicago and Los Angeles publications were not affected by the transaction.[1] The New York Hoy was later merged into El Diario La Prensa.

In 2018, Patrick Soon-Shiong purchased Hoy titles in Los Angeles and San Diego, as part of his purchase of the assets related to the Los Angeles Times and San Diego Union-Tribune. A year later, both were folded into the respective Spanish editions of the Times and Tribune. [2]

On November 12, 2019, Tribune Publishing announced that it would cease print and online publication of Hoy (Chicago) effective December 13.[3]
