Moab Times Independent
Serving the Grand County community since 1896, this weekly publication provides essential local coverage of environmental issues, regional politics, and tourism impacts in the heart of Utah’s canyon country. It stands as a vital record of Moab’s transition from a remote agricultural settlement to a world-renowned outdoor recreation hub.
MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN UTAH
Publishing in the Beehive State is historically defined by the enduring two-newspaper rivalry in its capital city. The secular, non-profit Salt Lake Tribune and the LDS Church-owned Deseret News dominate the statewide market, having maintained a joint operating agreement for decades before shifting toward digital-first distribution models. Outside the capital, readers rely on regional dailies like the Ogden Standard-Examiner and the Logan Herald Journal to cover their local communities. Alternative publications such as the Salt Lake City Weekly provide independent investigative journalism, alongside rural outlets like Moab's Canyon Country Zephyr.
