MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN SALT LAKE CITY

A long-standing two-daily market defines this media landscape, historically shaped by a joint operating agreement between its primary broadsheets. The Deseret News, established in 1850 and owned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, shares the major readership base with the Salt Lake Tribune, which recently became the first legacy daily in the nation to transition to a nonprofit model. Alternative reporting is provided by the Salt Lake City Weekly, while the Daily Utah Chronicle serves the university campus. Paperboy lists 7 newspapers in Salt Lake City.
