The Penticton Herald, a local Canadian English language newspaper is one of the oldest businesses in the Okanagan Valley. It has been published continuously since 1896, with only a few brief pauses. The Herald covers news of the entire valley, from Kaleden to Osoyoos and everywhere in between. In addition to news articles, the paper also includes community announcements, obituaries, and classified ads.

The Penticton Herald was originally published as the "Okanagan Sun", which started on December 10, 1896. The first edition of the paper had four pages and cost one cent. It changed its name to the "Penticton Herald" in 1899. It was purchased by John Russell (1861-1941) in 1901, who ran it until his death in 1941. His son, William Harold Russell (1897-1967), took over and continued publishing the paper until his death in 1967. In 1979, the paper was purchased by Thomson Newspapers (now known as Thomson Corporation).

The "Penticton Herald" is currently owned by Glacier Media Group, a Canadian newspaper company that owns 21 newspapers across Canada. It has a circulation of 6,000 copies per week and is distributed to 23 communities in the Okanagan Valley. The paper is published weekly on Wednesdays.
