Our History in Las Vegas

Las Vegas Newspaper traces its roots to 2013, when the brand was first established as a local news outlet for the Las Vegas Valley. Since then, the newsroom has evolved into a digital-first operation, expanding its coverage to neighborhoods, the Strip, and communities across Clark County.

Today, our reporting is focused on service journalism—helping readers understand what is happening, why it matters, and how it affects them. We aim to be a reliable daily touchpoint for residents and visitors who need trustworthy information about Las Vegas.
