The North Kitsap Herald is owned by Sound Publishing Inc., a subsidiary of Black Press.[3]
The newspaper was founded in 1901 by Peter Iverson [4] as the Kitsap County Herald. The name was changed to North Kitsap Herald in 1995.[5]
According to Sound Publishing, the North Kitsap Herald won 20 awards from the Washington Newspaper Publishers Association and Local Media Association, of which eight were first place awards, in 2020. [6][better source needed]
In March 2020, during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the North Kitsap Herald issued a statement that it would halt Friday print editions of the publication for an unknown amount of time, and directed audiences to read the digital newspaper Kitsap Daily News, which is owned by Kitsap News Group, a division of Sound Publishing .[7][8]
