Today's Pulse is a free weekly newspaper published by Cox Media Group in Liberty Township, Butler County, Ohio, United States. It began publishing in the 1960s in Mason and was known as The Pulse-Journal for most of its history. In 2013, it merged with the The Western Star of Lebanon and the Fairfield Echo of Fairfield in 2013. Since then, the paper has consisted of two Sunday editions, Today's Pulse of Warren County in southern Warren County and Today's Pulse of Butler County in eastern Butler County. Today's Pulse shares staff and resources with sister publications Journal-News and Dayton Daily News.

In the 1960s, Pat and Delores Diangelo began publishing the free Mason Shopping Guide out of their Mason home. The paper moved to an office in downtown Mason in the late 1960s.

In the 1970s, the paper became The Pulse and began publishing in a broadsheet format. Thomson Newspapers' Journal Publishing Company purchased the Pulse, renaming it the Mason Pulse-Journal after sister publications JournalNews of Hamilton and The Middletown Journal of Middletown. It was renamed again to the Pulse-Journal in 1977.

In the late 1990s, the paper moved to a shopping plaza south of downtown Mason. In July 2000, Cox Ohio Publishing exercised a right of first refusal against a proposed sale of the Pulse-Journal and Thomson's other southwestern Ohio publications to Gannett Company, owner of The Cincinnati Enquirer. After purchasing the papers in September of that year, Cox moved them to a consolidated office in Liberty Township.
