Standard-Examiner
The Standard-Examiner is a daily morning newspaper published in Ogden, Utah. With roughly 30,000 subscribers on Sunday and 25,000 daily, it is the third largest daily newspaper in terms of circulation in Utah, after The Salt Lake Tribune and the Deseret News. It was acquired by Sandusky Newspapers, Inc. of Sandusky, Ohio, on March 23, 1994. History

On January 1, 1888, the first edition of the Ogden Standard was published. In 1904, the newspaper became rivals with the Ogden Examiner. Subsequently, on April 1, 1920, the two competitors merged, creating the Standard-Examiner. The Standard-Examiner kept its offices in the Kiesel Building, just west of 24th Street (SR-53) and Washington Boulevard (US-89), until 1961 when the offices moved to 455 23rd Street. The building would remain there for 39 years. During that time, the newspaper, still owned by Glasmann's descendants, was sold to the Ohio-based Sandusky Newspaper Group (SNG). It is the largest-circulation newspaper owned by SNG. In 2000, the Standard-Examiner moved to Business Depot Ogden, a business park that had once been Defense Depot Ogden. A new $10 million printing press was installed, and the newspaper switched to morning publication in the same year. The Standard-Examiner reorganized its newsroom in August 2015 around a Real Time Desk, which reports breaking news online and curates the website. In April 2018, the Provo Daily Herald announced that it was buying Standard-Examiner. In mid-2018, The Ogden Newspapers Company bought out most of the Ogden Standard Examiner. The Standard-Examiner is Utah's third largest daily news source, serving Weber, Davis, Box Elder and Morgan Counties for over 128 years. Top of Utah
The Top of Utah is used to refer to the northern section of Utah, including the Davis, Weber, Box Elder, Morgan, Cache, and Rich counties." This term was coined by Standard-Examiner publisher Scott Trundle in the mid-1990s and used in a December 31, 2000, Ogden Standard-Examiner editorial as "the six-county Top of Utah region."
