Swaminathan Sadanand was an Indian journalist. He was founder editor of the English-language The Free Press Journal in 1930. This was a strong supporter of what A. R. Desai called the Indian National Congress's "demand and struggle for independence" from Great Britain. He was a self-taught journalist, whom J. K. Singh calls a great journalist but a poor business manager and a "sad failure". Rangaswami Parthasarathy calls him an able editor, an innovator and a fearless patriot. In 1927 he started the Free Press Agency, which was the first news agency owned and managed by Indians.
