West Hawaii Today is a Kailua-Kona, Hawai'i based daily newspaper. It is owned and published by Oahu Publications Inc., a subsidiary of Black Press.
In 1962, the Hilo Tribune-Herald launched a weekly Kona edition called the Kona Tribune-Herald.[2] This was expanded six years later into a daily called West Hawaii Today.[3][4] The paper was owned by Donrey Media Group, who's owner Donald W. Reynolds died in 1993.[5] The company was renamed to Stephens Media in 2002.[6]
In 2014, the Hawaii Tribune-Herald and West Hawaii Today were sold by Stephens Media to Oahu Publications Inc,[7] a subsidiary of Black Press Media, which was acquired by Carpenter Media Group in 2024.[8]
