There are many newspapers published in New South Wales, serving both the capital, Sydney, and the regions. Some newspapers are defunct; some have been renamed; some have been amalgamated. The two main Sydney newspapers are The Sydney Morning Herald, which was founded in 1831, and The Daily Telegraph, founded in 1879.
Broken Hill, though a city in New South Wales, has significant historical connections to South Australia.
There are also many current and past newspapers serving local communities in New South Wales that are published in languages other than English.
