The Monitor is a newspaper in McAllen, Texas that covers Starr and Hidalgo counties. It circulates nearly 41,000 copies daily, according to the Audit Bureau of Circulations.[1] It is owned by Freedom Communications.

The Monitor's Spanish-language sister paper, La Frontera, shut down in 2009.[2] It shares content with the Valley Morning Star and The Brownsville Herald. Both are also owned by Freedom Communications.

Both its publisher, M. Olaf Frandsen, and it's editor in chief, Steve Fagan, have worked at Pulitzer-winning newspapers. Frandsen was editor in chief of the Odessa American in 1988, when the paper won the Pulitzer for spot news photography.[3]
