Paonia does not have a local newspaper. It is served by ''The North Fork Times'', formerly an independent paper and now a section in the ''Delta County Independent''. The area is also served by the monthly ''North Fork Merchant Herald'', published in nearby Hotchkiss. The weekly ''Mountain Valley News'' was published in Cedaredge and distributed widely throughout Delta County, but closed in September 2013. Their sister publication, ''The High Country Shopper'', is published in Paonia.
