The "Kitsap Sun" is a newspaper in Bremerton, Washington, that covers general news. It serves the West Sound, covering Kitsap, Jefferson and Mason counties, has a circulation of about 30,000 [cite web

accessdate = 2007-03-19
title=Seattle Post Intelligencer ] and reaches over 100,000 adult readers seven days a week.

The "Sun" was first published in 1935 and named the "Sun" to compete with the "Seattle Star" directly across Puget Sound. Four years later, the circulation of the "Sun" surpassed that of its competitor.

In 1940, John P. Scripps Newspaper Group obtained control of the newspaper. It was merged with the E.W. Scripps Company in 1986.

The "Sun" has received numerous awards from local organizations and charities, and sponsors a variety of community festivals. Both the photography and editorial teams have won awards for their excellence.

The University of Washington Library holds copies of the "Kitsap Sun" from 1935 to date.
