La Frontera was a Spanish-language newspaper serving southern Texas, United States.
It was a sister publication of The Monitor, a newspaper headquartered in McAllen, Texas owned by Freedom Communications.
In April 2009, the paper won several Texas Associated Press Managing Editors awards; the categories that the newspaper gained awards in were features, headline writing, and sports writing.
The Monitor said that it was due to a poor economy and insufficient advertising revenues.
On Sunday October 18, 2009 the El Nuevo Heraldo was to be delivered to previous La Frontera subscribers.
