Welcome to the Hervey Bay Independent Newspaper!

The award-winning Hervey Bay Independent has forged a reputation as one
of the state's leading community newspapers.

Serving the Hervey Bay and district community for the past 19 years, the
'Indy' as it is affectionately known is the preferred publication for
readers and advertisers looking for maximum exposure and bang for their
buck.

Under new ownership since December 2005, the Independent is the Wide Bay's only
full colour, full gloss news magazine and is letterbox delivered to more
than 21,000 homes throughout Hervey Bay and district each Thursday.
Stapled and trimmed for reader convenience, the Indy sets new standards
for community newspapers and rises above its competition due to
significant points of difference.

Proudly retaining its independent voice and offering a positive
reflection upon the community it serves, the Indy offers unmatched
levels of affordability and penetration.
