History

''The Gundagai Independent and Pastoral, Agricultural and Mining Advocate'' was first published on 7 September 1898 by Patrick and James Sullivan as a competitor to '' The Gundagai Times and Tumut, Adelong, and Murrumbidgee District Advertiser''. The first issue proclaimed that it would "be run on truly liberal and democratic lines". The ''Independent'' has been continuously published by members of the Sullivan family since its beginning. In 1928 the newspaper shortened its name to ''The Gundagai Independent'' and in 1932 it absorbed its competitor.
