The South Idaho Press was a U.S. daily newspaper (except Saturday and Sunday) serving Minidoka and Cassia counties (Minidoka County Cassia County) in south-central Idaho. The paper had a circulation of 3,850[1]. It was owned by Lee Enterprises and was a part of the Twin Falls Group along with the Times-News (Twin Falls, Idaho) and Elko Daily Free Press (Elko, Nevada).

The South Idaho Press was a consolidation and successor of the Burley Bulletin, which began in 1904 and the Burley Herald.[2].

The "South Idaho Press" was merged with the Times-News in August 2008. The office and printing operation were shut down, with some of the editorial, advertising and circulation staff remaining as a bureau of the Twin Falls-based Times-News.

Today the Times-News, Mini-Cassia edition is a seven day a week newspaper with content and advertising for and about the Mini-Cassia area and the office is open M-F, 9am-3pm at 230 E. Main in Burley.
