The North Jefferson News is a weekly newspaper based in Gardendale. The publisher is Bill Morgan and editor is Melanie Patterson. The paper's offices are located at 1110 Main Street. The paper distributes approximately 3,000 copies of each Wednesday edition, and covers the northern part of Jefferson County plus a small portion of western Blount County, including the cities of Gardendale, Fultondale, Morris, Kimberly, Warrior and Hayden.

Established in 1970 as a weekly, The North Jefferson News was soon acquired by Cullman Times publisher Robert Bryan and made part of his Bryan Newspapers holdings. That group of papers was sold in 1997 to Community Newspaper Holdings, Inc, a Montgomery-based company which owns newspapers, television stations, Web sites and niche publications which serve more than 150 communities throughout the United States. A second Saturday edition was added in 2007, but the edition was discontinued at the beginning of 2012.

Danielle Pelkey is the general manager, and Robert Carter is the sports/digital editor.
