MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN NEVADA

Rooted in 19th-century mining booms, the Silver State's press landscape is defined by a stark contrast between massive metropolitan dailies in the south and historic publications scattered across rural counties. The largest publication, the Las Vegas Review-Journal, dominates circulation under the ownership of the Adelson family. It shares a joint operating agreement with the Greenspun family-owned Las Vegas Sun, a daily known for its historically liberal editorial stance. Further north, Lee Enterprises operates the Elko Daily Free Press, serving remote mining and ranching communities. Alternative publications like the Las Vegas Weekly primarily cover southern entertainment and arts. Paperboy indexes 21 Nevada newspapers — browse the full directory below.
