The Santa Barbara News-Press was a broadsheet newspaper based in Santa Barbara, California. It was founded in 1868 as the Post and merged with the rival News to form the News-Press in 1932.

The newsroom was reduced from 65 employees to 20 by 2016; that same year, the Santa Barbara News-Press was among the first newspapers to endorse Donald Trump's campaign for president. McCaw authored several right-wing editorials during the following years, including criticism of social distancing rules during the COVID-19 pandemic. The newspaper's printed edition was later reduced to four pages before being eliminated entirely.
