Cootamundra Herald

The Cootamundra Herald is a former printed bi-weekly newspaper now existing only on-line and containing little or no news of direct relevance to the community of Cootamundra, New South Wales, Australia.^[1] The Herald website carries syndicated non-local copy with occasional government media releases referring to local issues. Following the purchase of the masthead in 2019 by Australian Community Media, the Herald office which had existed for 144 years in the main street was closed and local staff were forced to work part-time from home. The staff resigned or were eventually sacked, and there are now no local Herald employees generating content related to the town.^{[citation needed]}

Some duties of a local newspaper have been undertaken by the Twin Towns Times of Harden-Murrumburrah.^{[citation needed]}
