The Las Vegas Review-Journal is published in
Las Vegas, Nevada. It is the largest circulating daily newspaper in
Nevada, and Las
Vegas' only daily newspaper. It has a daily circulation of 198,000.
The Review-Journal, sometimes referred to as the R-J, takes a very
libertarian editorial stance, particularly compared to the afternoon
Las
Vegas Sun, with which it has a
joint operating agreement that runs through 2040. In 2005, the
Sun ceased to operate an afternoon newspaper and began distribution as a section
of the Review-Journal.
History
The Clark County Review was first printed in
1909 and became the Las Vegas Review as 1926. In March 1929, the Clark County
Journal began publication, and in July of that year, the Review bought the
Journal and began co-publication as the Las Vegas Evening Review-Journal. In the
early 1940s, the owners of the RJ bought the Las Vegas Age, which began
publication in 1905. The word "evening" was dropped from the name in 1949.
The Review-Journal entered into its joint operating agreement with the Sun in
1990.
