'The Kiama Independent is one of Australia’s oldest and proudest mastheads.
It was first published [as The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Gazette] in 1863, [and celebrates] its 150th anniversary in 2013.
'In 2012, the newspaper experienced the biggest change in its history, changing from a paid masthead to a free paper, being delivered to 7270 homes.
'The paper is delivered to a loyal readership in Kiama, Gerringong, Gerroa, Jamberoo, Minnamurra and the rapidly growing residential suburbs of Kiama Downs and Gainsborough.'

'A Constant Reader' writes to the Freeman's Journal highlighting the anti-Roman Catholic sentiment displayed in the pages of The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Advertiser. The letter to the editor is followed by an extract from the Independent in which the Freeman's Journal is accused of exciting 'suspicions, hatred, and rancour among the various nationalities and creeds of the colony'.
